Better work can be done much cheaper with a much better quality. BTW, the Persian Computing community may be interested to see the technical output of certain projects there. I personally appreciate any discussion of the following documents here on this mailing list: Good (a specification and implementation for Persian fonts): http://projects.farsilinux.org/download.php/10/opentype.zip Bad (a specification for the Iranian calendar): http://projects.farsilinux.org/download.php/13/PersianCalendar3.pdf http://projects.farsilinux.org/download.php/13/PersianCalendar4.pdf Ugly (Compilation of some non-standard Persian fonts *released* by a project who is supposed to write a specification about requirements of a Persian keyboard driver for Linux): http://projects.farsilinux.org/download.php/6/Farsi_Font_Linux_2.zip > I'm afraid not.
