Tibetan Professional Typography Guidelines

Subjoined Consonant Stacks

Tibetan builds complex vertical stacks with base consonants and subjoined letters, requiring precise OpenType mark-to-base alignment.

Tsheg Spacing & Generous Line Height

Tibetan uses syllable-dividing dots (Tsheg). Set CSS line-height to 1.8-2.2 to prevent stack collisions.

📊 Methodology:

Complete validation across Unicode Tibetan range (0F00–0FFF) including all subjoined consonants. (Last verified: Oct 2026)

❓ Tibetan Font FAQ

Why does Tibetan need such generous line-height?

Because Tibetan syllables can stack up to four layers vertically, requiring significant vertical breathing room.
