Mistakes in Telugu Font Rendering

[TELUGU_BIDDA]

Telugu font is rendered great except for a few exceptions.

రెండు వత్తులు పెట్టి నప్పుడు, వత్తుల వరస మారిపోతోంది
e.g. సంస్కృతం
వట్రసుడి "క" వత్తు కన్నా ముందు వస్తోంది

This happens in all applications, Open Office, Firefox etc.

Another rendering problem
fair^fAks veb^braujar - ఫైర్‌ఫాక్స్ వెబ్‌బ్రౌజర్
viks - విక్స్

[TELUGU_BIDDA (sastrik2)]

Note: All the above examples are rendered correctly by the rts transliterator at http://www.andhrabharati.com/rts2pdf/

Unassigning myself so someone more qualified can carry over.

The status of this bug was incorrectly set to "incomplete". Setting back to "new". The definition of "incomplete" is:
# If you have to ask the reporter questions, set the bug to Incomplete
# Ask the submitter to provide any necessary information in a comment, and make sure you subscribe yourself to the bug report so you will get any updates to the bug via e-mail.
# In the event that a bug has been in the "Incomplete" state for more than 4 weeks, meaning it has not received a response to a request for more information, the bug status should be changed to "Invalid"

1. Please provide a screenshot/image how the correct rendering should look like.
2. does this still happen with the latest release in Intrepid?
3. What is the name of the font which has the wrong rendering?

The first bug requires changes to telugu-ot-table.

The comment at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ttf-indic-fonts/+bug/219949/comments/1 relates to bug with Lohit-te font as this does not appear with Pothana2000 font. Bug filed in fedora https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476427 . Ofcourse using Pothana2000 font in Firefox introduces some english text rendering problems, for which I will log a bug soon.
