Description

Hello,

I’m experiencing an issue in **Noto Nastaliq Urdu** where the **dots beneath Jeem (ج)** and **Che (چ)** disappear when these letters are followed by **Bari Ye (ے)**. Example combinations:

- ج + ے → جے (dots disappear)
- چ + ے → چے (dots disappear)

These combinations are commonly used in Urdu, and the missing dots affect readability and correctness.

**Environment:**
- Font: Noto Nastaliq Urdu (please indicate version if known)
- Platform: [e.g., Windows 10, macOS Monterey, Android 13, etc.]
- Application: [e.g., Word, VS Code, Web Browser]

I can also provide screenshots or sample text if that would help.

Thank you for your work on Noto Fonts—this font is invaluable, and I hope this can be addressed.
