Description

**Describe the bug**
The Nunito font exhibits a readability issue when specific letter combinations are used. In particular, when a lowercase 'l' is followed by an uppercase 'J' (forming "l J"), the sequence closely resembles the letter 'U', causing confusion and misreading.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Use the Nunito font.
2. Type the letter combination "l J" (lowercase 'l' followed by uppercase 'J').
3. Observe the similarity of this combination to the letter 'U'.

**Expected behavior**
The expectation is that each letter combination in the font should be distinctly recognizable and not easily confused with other letters or symbols.
