There is a normative file, auxiliary/WordBreakProperty.txt in the Unicode Character Database. The Word_Break property should have nothing to do with rendering, and I would not expect the rendering engines to pay any attention to them. Is this a problem for gender-sensitive shaping? The Word_Break property is for splitting text into word, such as advancing through text word-by-word and spell-checking. I get the impression that the Mongolian script is one where there is great need of a spell-checker, because with a normal font one can't check what one wrote. Richard.
