Font Test window

Post by Layal »

Arabic font characters don't display on Font Test window,
however appear in Preview (F8) window correctly.

Also, font doesn't display in Windows font file icon,instead the default font appears on the icon.

May I know the reason for that?

The Font Test window should show your font just fine.

I suspect your font doesn’t cover enough Arabic characters, for the auto calc range feature.

Do open the Font Properties dialog and go to the Range tab. Uncheck the Auto feature and manually add Arabic to both ranges.

Let us know your results.

Adding Arabic language manually to the range made no difference, but apparently changing the script name from DFLT to arab in the code editor works!

Thank you very much :)
