Confusing dot positions for letter Taa (تاء) #13

As the first (right) dot of Taa (تاء) appears too far on the right, it appears mistakenly placed over the previous letter, which creates a confusion when the previous letter has a dot such as letter Noon (نون).

Figure below shows how the 2 words "كنتم" and "كتنم" are respectively displayed as "كتنم" and "كنتم".

Another figure showing the words "فتنتم" and "بنتكم" and "ربتنا".

I may suggest that either the width of letters are increased, the distance between the 2 dots are reduced, or the 2 dots are placed vertically instead.

This is a known issue. There is a reason the font has not been officially released yet 😅. The width of the letters can’t be increased as it would alter the classical proportions of this kind of Kufi. Right now, users are expected to manually fix things like these, think of it as a tool to help in making digital artwork and not as a final product.
