------- Additional comments from [email protected] Sat Oct 10 15:37:21 +0000 2009 ------- Often we have some knowledge of the language that some text is written in when we are forced to use glyph fallback. This helps fontconfig pick a good font to use for that text. In some circumstances, e.g. in the UI itself we don't have any hints to fontconfig basically is forced to pick one at random. What basically pango does in this circumstance is categorize the script that the text is written in and assign it a example language written using that script when asking fontconfig for glyph fallback which gives better results. Patch attached to do that. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=527719 for some screenshots of the problem at the moment that this solves. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
