I support this statement, What if you replace "Urdu Nastaliq Unicode" with "Nafees Nastaleeq"? the answer is yes.
this font should display urdu text even if urdu package is not installed. There is some default font thats why we can see/read urdu at least. Udu Nastaliq Unicode is not well supported, where as Nafees Nastaleeq is made and supported by some well known institution of pakistan and is an organization. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1153188 Title: Urdu with better support: Default Fonts, Kbd Layout Status in “fontconfig” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Debian: New Bug description: Default fonts in Ubuntu show ugly Urdu text. It's better that language-selector sets "Nafees Regular" (Nafees Web in fonts-nafees package) as default font for all font families (SansSerif, Serif...except mono) used in Ubuntu. I would like to ask, if language-selector is able to set specific keyboard layout for Urdu for 1st time? Please Shabbir: Could you write here the best setting for Urdu Fonts (Using "Tweak Tool": Scale Factor, Hinting, Anitaliasing, Size)?
