I understand the viewpoint. If this was Pashto or Kurdish or something else, we would have agreed and done it. But the fonts lack the Urdu look and feel (Nastaliq and all), and many Pakistanis can't even read them easily, being used to Nastaliq. I would appreciate if you tell this to Pablo, or anybody else who is blocking Arabic or Persian because of the lack of a good font for Urdu. roozbeh _______________________________________________ Developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/developer
