We have particular problems with Kurdish which has some diacritics not used in other languages. There are a lot of fonts for standard arabic script, but less for variants. I could not find any suitable font in Ubuntu, and I think this is an issure for GNOME also. Erdal, does Deja Vu [1] include your glyphs yet? You could try it, and Verajja [2], which will soon be part of it. The Verajja author is certainly keen to work on incorporating needed glyphs, and to work responsively with language users. from Clytie (vi-VN, Vietnamese free-software translation team / nhÃm Viát hÃa phán mám tá do) http://groups-beta.google.com/group/vi-VN [1]Âhttp://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page [2]Âhttp://www.aimwell.org/Fonts/fonts.html |
