Subject: bug#5081: zwj should not be ignored in indic text
Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 20:24:17 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3f2beab60911300654qdc88c5as42b929860f22580f@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

ZWJ is required to display some characters (like Malayalam chillu or
pure consonants) in many indic languages (Persian and Arabic also
needs these characters). These should not be ignored while displaying
indic text.

See attachment for an example.

Reference display with gedit is also attached.
