My computing environment is Plan9. Plan9 fully supports Unicode (UTF-8), but it lacks the glyphs for several font ranges. There is currently no ttf or opentype support or conversion routines. I've written a BDF font converter to Plan9 native format to fill in some of the ranges, include 600-6FF. My long term goal is to add support for bidi/joining to Plan9. BTW, there is a large collection of opensource fonts (efont) that I've used but their arabic/farsi glyphs are not very satisfying. Their preferred format is also BDF. Have you considered contributing to that effort? _______________________________________________ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
