describe-char for shin (character at point in shin.png) provides glyph info
as belonging to DejaVuSans. However, the actual glyph in DejaVuSans is
different as shown in ftview.png.
position: 4 of 11 (27%), column: 4
character: ש (displayed as ש) (codepoint 1513, #o2751, #x5e9)
charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
code point in charset: 0x05E9
script: hebrew
syntax: w which means: word
category: .:Base, R:Right-to-left (strong)
to input: type "C-x 8 RET 5e9" or "C-x 8 RET HEBREW LETTER
SHIN"
buffer code: #xD7 #xA9
file code: not encodable by coding system iso-latin-1-unix
display: composed to form "שָׁ" (see below)
Composed with the following character(s) "ָׁ" using this font:
*ftcrhb:-PfEd-DejaVu Sans-bold-oblique-normal-*-45-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1*
by these glyphs:
[0 2 1464 1305 0 4 21 0 10 nil]
[0 2 1473 1314 0 36 42 33 -28 nil]
[0 2 1513 1344 34 4 39 25 0 nil]
Character code properties: customize what to show
name: HEBREW LETTER SHIN
general-category: Lo (Letter, Other)
decomposition: (1513) ('ש')
There are text properties here:
face (:weight bold :slant oblique)

Please show the entire describe-char display in Emacs as an image, and
also the buffer text where you invoked that command as an image from
an Emacs window.
Your shin.png image shows a font that isn't DejaVu Sans, so I'm
curious why Emacs says it is that font.

Thanks, but I see nothing when I go there.
Could you please post the images here? TIA.

See attached.
Additional info: I applied text properties (it's in the describe-char
output, but easy to overlook) using
(put-text-property (point) (1+ (point)) 'face '(:weight bold :slant
oblique))
Apparently, this is what is causing the issue. Even though the glyph is
neither bold nor slant.

You did that only for a single character SHIN? But the image shows
that the entire string is displayed by a font that is not DejaVu Sans
Mono. And at least on my system, DejaVu Sans Mono doesn't have glyphs
for the Hebrew block, so when I tell Emacs to use DejaVu Sans Mono as
the default font, the Hebrew letters are displayed using a different
font.
If you don't apply the text property, do you see the Hebrew text
displayed by DejaVu Sans Mono, or does Emacs use a different font for
it? And what does describe-char say about that if you don't apply the
text property?
> Apparently, this is what is causing the issue.
It could be, but I don't see how this could happen, by just looking at
the code involved in this. I'm probably missing something.

Btw, is this in "emacs -Q"? If "emacs -Q" doesn't exhibit this
problem, perhaps you have some font-related customizations which do?

It is "emacs -Q". My default font is DejaVuSans Mono. Hence H is displayed
using the same. The Hebrew text is using Linux Libertine Display O. For
printing, I needed text with font variation. So I applied the text property
for weight and slant - though it didn't change the appearance. After that,
desc-char starts reporting as mentioned in OP.

Thanks, but this answers only part of my questions. Please also
answer the following:
. did you put the text property only on the single character SHIN or
on the whole Hebrew text?
. what does describe-char report for the SHIN character before you
put the text property?
TIA

And one new question:
. Your original report shows Hebrew text with diacritics (so-called
"Hebrew points"). Specifically, the letter SHIN is followed by
two such diacritics: U+05C1 and U+05B8. Emacs composes those on
display into a single grapheme cluster. If you use the Hebrew
text without those diacritics, i.e. just "שלום", does the problem
happen in that case as well, i.e. do you still see the incorrect
font name after adding the text property?

Only on single character using (put-text-property (point) (1+ (point))
'face '(:weight bold :slant oblique)) while the point was under that
character.

This atleast applies the weight correctly but reported font is DejaVu
Sans-bold.

OK, thanks. And in the last case, the text us indeed displayed using
DejaVu Sans, i.e. the glyphs look similar to what ftview shows?
And what does the below display in the original case, i.e. with Hebrew
points in the text:
M-: (find-composition (point) nil nil t) RET
when point is on the SHIN character?

That's the correct font, which is unexpected: the above
find-composition call is from describe-char, so if that returns the
correct font, how come describe-char winds up reporting an incorrect
font?
Could you perhaps step in Edebug through describe-char and see what
happens to the value returned by find-composition in your case, before
the font is reported? The call to find-composition is near the
beginning of describe-char, here:
(interactive "d")
(unless (buffer-live-p buffer) (setq buffer (current-buffer)))
(let ((src-buf (current-buffer)))
(set-buffer buffer)
(if (>= pos (point-max))
(error "No character follows specified position"))
(let* ((char (char-after pos))
(eight-bit-p (and (not enable-multibyte-characters) (>= char 128)))
(charset (if eight-bit-p 'eight-bit
(or (get-text-property pos 'charset)
(char-charset char))))
(composition (find-composition pos nil nil t)) <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
(component-chars nil)
Thanks.

My bad. I mixed up the test. After applying the text property on SHIN, the
result is:
(10 13 [[#<font-object "-PfEd-DejaVu
Sans-bold-oblique-normal-*-78-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1"> 1513 1473 1464] 63 [0

Ah. So the problem is somewhere inside find_automatic_composition or
the functions it calls. If you can step through that code with GDB,
please do (I'll provide instructions if you need them). Failing that,
someone who can reproduce the problem would need to see what happens
in there; I cannot reproduce the issue with the fonts I have here.
