It contains a great many different lines to link the letters, and I stored those in the Greek and Russian sections of the font (Unicode 03xx en 04xx). Iâm using RP to build an application that inserts these Greek and Russian âlettersâ in between the Latin ones, so that the text can be displayed in my handwriting font. Iâm using a TextArea to do so. In the Mac version of my application everything works and looks as expected. But I cannot get the Windows version to properly display the text (neither in XP nor in Windows 7). When I use a TrueType version of my font, the links appear as shadowy Greek and Russian letters, and when I use an OpenType version the links are displayed but they get too much space, and the bottom part of Latin letters that reach below the base line, like the p and the g, is not shown at all. The same text looks alright in a Windows word processor so Windows is able to use my font as intended ⦠Any suggestions? I'd be most grateful ⦠Bart Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 1 post ]
