Please also provide the text as text, so we could compare the
rendering you see with what we see in other builds of Emacs.  On
macOS, which you seem to be using, Emacs uses the system text-shaping
engine, which is different from HarfBuzz we use on most other
platforms, so the rendering we see could be different.

Thanks.
