Then, I suspect that the font doesn't have glyphs for
combining characters (U+0300...U+037F), and thus Emacs uses
the other font for those characters, which results in
no-composition (Emacs can compose characters of the same
font only). If you have a tool to see glyphs of ttf fonts,
please check it. If you don't have such a tool, please try
the program "otfview" included in libotf-bin package.

How about the other programs? For instance, can gedit
display the same text correctly with that font?
