Gurumukhi LLA should have dot to the left of Gurumukhi LA
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description:
There is request from a Punjabi user mentioning that the letter that key N produces is wrong in Gurumukhi Inscript layout in Punjabi Wikipedia. Now the key N gives ਲ਼ (dot is after the character).

But accoring to him the dot should appear before character. Could you verify this. I have checked the Redhat Punjabi Inscript layout and few other images available on the web http://bit.ly/MXycoj. In many places it is as per current Narayam implementation

The one place I saw an image as per user's suggestion is here http://www.5abi.com/dosh/fontU-dnld2.htm Could you verify this and update the Gurumukhi Punjabi layout as per the accepted standards.

This issue needs to fixed with Unicode. http://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0A00.pdf U+0A33 is mentioned with dot on the left. Please provide any references(any govt documents?) to ascertain that the dot should be on the left.

Closing this. The upstream issue was closed as not a bug. Per comment 2 and comment 3, before this actually is an issue, the unicode specification should support the request.
