Because there is a shortage of Persian geeks in the world! The people who
do Persian work with ink/paper and the people who do computers work in
English.

Although I wonder where the people publishing the literary magazines/books
are getting their training? Some of the "Kitaab-e maah"s are such a joy to
read for example.

So too long to scan :(
Ok, when you get around to it, post the publishing info.

I'm sure they'll get around to it one day. Hopefully the "experts" will
have a clue next time.  I have  a sneaking suspicion that they don't have
anyone doing Persian typography on their staff.

I'd put some info on ZWNJ on my Persian wordprocessing FAQ a long time
ago. Now I will add some details I've picked up from this discussion (esp
on ZWJ) and illustrate with some real text for folks who'd like to have
some choice. I hope that'll be helpful and not cause too much damage.
Again, I sure wish the silent lurkers would provide some input.  Someone
surely must have an opinion??You all come out snorting, hee-hawing, and
neighing when Saber posts a URL to a site requiring a password and forgets
to provide the password or when there's a heh+hamzeh war. What about for
non-crisis times like this??
