Thanks!
Another issue that I notice is that you specify the font "Bitstream
Charter", as the font for the countdown text. This font supports Latin
characters only. If the numbers are in a different language, typical
font substitution will take place so it should work in this specific
case. However, in the general case it is not a good idea.
An alternative is to use "Sans" (or "Serif"), which are virtual fonts,
and pick the appropriate font explicitly through the configuration files
in /etc/fonts/conf.d/
For example, the "serif" font for Thai characters is the Norasi font
(that's what my Ubuntu configuration files say).
Hope this helps,
Simos
