Hi,  
When I export my font the Hebrew marks do not align to the anchors. The only thing that fixes this is if I delete all of the features from the Features tab in the Font Info panel (I tried deleting one at a time but it only works when there are no features at all…)  
Any ideas as to what can be doing this?  
Here’s the .glyphs file: [atlas-pro15.zip](https://forum.glyphsapp.com/uploads/default/original/2X/2/2a0d7513f45437d8ef188f3b85c3b72b6ecd465a.zip) (124.0 KB) if anyone can take a look.  
And here’s an example of how it should work.

Here’s some Hebrew for testing: בּשֱׁחֹ  
Thanks very much,  
Avraham 🙂

I previously reported a similar issue:

Hey, that is a different issue. 🙂 Similar, but different. For me the Compound glyphs are working. All the combinations that do not have a Compound glyph aren’t aligning to the Anchors.

I believe there are two issues here;

1. related to no Hebrew CCMP as mentioned in my post above.
2. testing with Indesign Diacritics adjustments as None & Baseline adjustments as shown below proofs something infected with the last one :

I have a similar problem with composed Hebrew glyphs being ruined during export: [Composed Hebrew characters break during export](https://forum.glyphsapp.com/t/composed-hebrew-characters-break-during-export/4340/9)

UPDATE: this happens only on the new Glyphsapp - version 2.3  
I exported the file on my other computer that has the previous version (2.2) and it works.  
@GeorgSeifert @mekkablue Can you look into this?

Please add the line

```auto
languagesystem hebr IWR;

```

to the Languagesystems. I’ll add that automatically in the next version.
