Re: IranSystem to Unicode (UTF-8) converter
I've include the man page for tcs utility in Plan9 OS. Would something like this do what you want? If so, I'll post the instructions on how to get the sources to this list. Tcs has been ported to Posix environments like BSD, Linux, Cygwin (for Windows) -Fariborz TCS(1) TCS(1) NAME tcs - translate character sets SYNOPSIS tcs [ -slcv ] [ -f ics ] [ -t ocs ] [ file ... ] DESCRIPTION Tcs interprets the named file(s) (standard input default) as a stream of characters from the ics character set or format, converts them to runes, and then converts them into a stream of characters from the ocs character set or format on the standard output. The default value for ics and ocs is utf, the UTF encoding described in utf(6). The -l option lists the character sets known to tcs. Processing continues in the face of conversion errors (the -s option prevents reporting of these errors). The -c option forces the output to con- tain only correctly converted characters; otherwise, 0x80 characters will be substituted for UTF encoding errors and 0xFFFD characters will substituted for unknown characters. The -v option generates various diagnostic and summary information on standard error, or makes the -l output more verbose. Tcs recognizes an ever changing list of character sets. In particular, it supports a variety of Russian and Japanese encodings. Some of the supported encodings are utfThe Plan 9 UTF encoding, known by ISO as UTF-8 utf1 The deprecated original UTF encoding from ISO 10646 ascii 7-bit ASCII 8859-1 Latin-1 (Central European) 8859-2 Latin-2 (Czech ..

Re: PersoArabic tables for XP fonts
Thanks Roozben, As you mentioned, this in the non dummy solution. I'll certainly get to it if I don't find any dummy solution. I was thinking of something more like taking tables from one font which already has it, and puting it in another one which doesn't. Is it possible? or am I completely off track?

Adding OpenType tables to a font is not something that can be done by dummies. You should know what you're doing. For a start, try Microsoft's typography pages at http://www.microsoft.com/typography/. Information for font creators is available at http://www.microsoft.com/typography/creators.htm. Some gratis tools are available at http://www.microsoft.com/typography/free.htm.

Well, that won't work unless the fonts have the same glyphs at the same glyph indexes, which is almost impossible if the fonts have not been created by a single entity. The best advice I may be able to give, is trying VOLT (http://www.microsoft.com/typography/developers/volt/default.htm). It is supposed to be an OpenType tool for dummies, if you can cope with the number of bugs, and the other headaches it will give you. roozbeh ___ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
Nim Fasele
Ba Salam, Could anybody tell me how to type « Nim Fasele » in Persian and how to make word 2000 to type Persian? I use my word pad to type Persian in windows XP but my word 2000 does not have any Arabic option, besides it becomes impossible to write « Nim Fasele » any ways.

Omega - teTeX (and MikTeX) HowTo
bA salAm, I have never used omega option in LaTeX but recently saw a sample, arabic one, and tried to reproduce it with no chance, specially that official site of omega seems to be gone! What I noticed was that the omega.sty that I have under Linux, teTeX, has Roozbeh's name on it and the one in MikTeX does not. I thought maybe someone here might be willing to help me run omega under both linux and windows to write persian texts. I didn't even know that I had to run omega instead of latex on my *.tex file but again, the difference of versions and lack of documentation is hindering me from doing it right. Thanks in adavance for any help, Mostafa Modirrousta ___ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing

Actually the official site would not help too much. But their CVS repo does. What I noticed was that the omega.sty that I have under Linux, teTeX, has Roozbeh's name on it and the one in MikTeX does not. I thought maybe someone here might be willing to help me run omega under both linux and windows to write persian texts. Version ofcourse. In my teTeX I have Omega 1.23.2 which IIRC is almost the latest version, but MikTeX should have a pretty old (stable) one. I didn't even know that I had to run omega instead of latex on my *.tex file but again, the difference of versions and lack of documentation is hindering me from doing it right. Actually you need to run lambda instead of latex, and omega instead of tex. I'm going to setup a working system too. Gush, the one in teTeX works very good for me. You know, using omega is pretty trickey, you need to set up a system yourself. There is one I have wrote called faanoos. Very experimental ofcourse. I have put a sample input TeX and output PS files here for a few days: http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~behdad/fandoc.tex http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~behdad/fandoc.ps.gz Thanks in adavance for any help, Mostafa Modirrousta behdad ___ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
