Dear All,
 Hello,

 I am trying to use "fontsampler example" with Persian fonts (please
see below or "http://wiki.luatex.org/index.php/Fontsampler"
 for fontsampler codes).
 The problem is that Persian words apears as a string of separate
glyphs, for example I get "ح‌س‌ن" instead of "حسن".
 Do I have to use commands like the followings inside \directlua or
tex.tprint to fix the problem? If yes, how can I do that?

\installlanguage [fa][default=pe,date=\longjalalidatefmt]
\mainlanguage[fa]

\definefontfeature[tlig][tlig=yes]
\definefontfeature[slanted][slant=.2]
\definefontfeature[dlang][language=dflt]
\definefontfeature[flang][language=far]

Thanks
Mingranina
