Here's the URL of a comparison I made of the old [1983 ?!] Sinasoft version and the new Borna version. This is only for people with a lot of time because you'll have to remove your own Nazanin font (if you have) and install mine. (Apparently there are lots of Nazanin versions out there....) If you'll recall, the new Naz now handles diacritics in non-IE browsers and also can be embedded however, in exchange, it doesn't look as nice as the old Nazanin on a web page (although it looks fine in a Word doc or .pdf file, whether on screen or printed.) How would someone who is good with fonts like to take a look? (Like, someone besides Roozbeh who is overworked and generally over-exploited?!) Either the old Nazanin has to have its settings changed to match the new Nazanin or the New Nazanin has to have its "look" changed to match the old Naz. I have no clue how much work this is but thank you in advance if anyone is willing/able to tackle this problem. There's also a link on the page to a Weft test I successfully made last month. (Of course, it's for IE only and you'll have to uninstall Nazanin from your computer to appreciate.) If anyone thinks I'm totally taking the wrong approach to this webfont problem, speak up! I'm lost as to how to go about it. Oh, by the way, if you really want to get depressed, check out BBC's Urdu page. They are now making you download and install a font and after all that trouble, it's not even a nice looking font! As if the headlines weren't bad enough... -Connie _______________________________________________ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
