hello there,
lately, I finished making an Arabic font with tashkeel (marks),
the result is nice in adobe programs (illustrator for ex), but while testing it in notepad or wordpad the problem appeared
when i add a mark to a letter it adds a useless space, like the image below
the image is captured from wordpad
I use win xp btw

I’m sorry I cannot help with your problem (and I don’t even read arabic), but I like your font! :-)

Mark glyphs need to be zero width and assigned OpenType "mark" glyph class, how to do that depends on the tools you use.
