That was my thought, too. However, I don’t think this is the root cause in this case.
1. Other applications (including Web browsers and the native GUI toolkit) render
the text just fine. This makes me believe the font file itself contains enough information.
2. Emacs also discovers some glyphs should be composed, e.g. intonation marks (e.g. #xed8c),
but not the vowels. I don’t know why this happens. I just tried copy character properties
from these good ones. It didn’t work.
But in general, this could just be Emacs not fully supporting OpenType features.
