You can override this by context before | context after settings in the glyph substitution table. Rgds, Pavanaja----------------------------------------------------- Dr. U.B.

Did you try it in WinXP? WinXP does not have an IME for Bengali, but it should render. -Pavanaja > On Fri, 2002-09-27 at 17:31, Dr. U.B.

James Kass-s fonts. Also there are different versions of uniscribe, I don't know how they are "officially" distributed but they matter eg. the version of uniscribe that I have makes the jawfola come out wrong, but James Kass snet me a screenshot of a correctly renderd jawfola using the same font. -kaushik |

As per my interaction with the people responsible for OTF and Uniscribe at MS, there is support for all Indian languages in Uniscribe. But currently there is no font and IME for Malayalam, Bengali and Oriya in Win XP. -Pavanaja > On 28 Sep 2002 08:45:26 +0530 > Sayamindu Dasgupta <unm...@So...> wrote: > > > On Fri, 2002-09-27 at 17:31, Dr. U.B.
