Ah yeah, OT features What I meant is the line-breaking, kerning and ligatures that legacy RMSDK does. I'm honestly not quite sure how well the readium in the latest RMSDK works for these features.

Unfortunately, no one else seems to do line breaking like legacy RMSDK does, which is the main reason I still prefer it.
