--- Comment #2 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com 2009-10-01 20:18:31 EDT --- Wed May 27 05:14:58 2009 rbhalera@redhat.com: "The problem with fop is not just that of per-glyph font selection. At some place in publican, two fonts are declared for Chinese text. Not sure if that works correctly or not. The same setup for Hindi fonts did not work. Instead I actually used 'Sarai' font in the configuration in place of lohit. Sarai includes glyphs for both hindi and latin text. This solved the problem for english text. If at all per-glyph selection is not a quick fix, this approach can be used for rest of the languages as well. But it still wont solve the bigger problem, i.e. rendering of indic text.
Currently FOP is not using any rendering/layout engine such as pango or qt for indic text rendering. So the generated pdf shows all of the indic text broken. So, Unless the indic rendering is fixed (using pango looks viable option) there is no quick fix to this problem."
