Reported 2013-08-09 15:18:43 PDT
Created attachment 208458 [details] testcase At the end of a word, a much smaller width is applied to a Hebrew base character + zero-width diacritic compared to the base character alone, but both should have the same width. Demo: http://ophir.li/demo/heb/heb.php Chrome 28/OS X: http://ophir.li/demo/heb/heb.php.gif (notice the behavior in the second row) Firefox 23/OS X: http://ophir.li/demo/heb/heb.php.fx.gif After a bit of testing, this does not seem to be a regression.

For what it’s worth, I believe Chrome’s (confirmed) version of this bug is filed here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=318674

This is a fantastic bug report. However, the problem here exists in the OS X platform itself. The platform is giving WebKit incorrect information about the width of the glyphs, and WebKit is using that incorrect information. Instead of filing this here, you should file this on bugreporter.apple.com. Thanks so much, Myles
