Re: Embeding farsi font for web pages
Sadeq, The secret is that the font must have embedding permission enabled. You can check permissions on the font with this free tool: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/property/property.htm The Farsiweb Koodak font will work although that is still under construction. I'm guessing Mehran's fonts mentioned earlier today will also work and if so, that will be great since they are unicode-compliant. Mehran? I've successfully used Borna's fonts with Weft a long time ago: http://www.bornaray.com/en_fonts.asp?fn=per_fonts&rfn=en_fonts&parent=fontslist&Grand=Main These fonts are not unicode-compliant but since you are embedding, as long as you specify UTF-8, that should also work. Of course Weft is only for WIndows and Internet Explorer. Also, if the system administrator has configured the computer in such a way that certain settings are forced on the user, then also Weft won't work. However, Weft may be one solution to insure the user sees YOUR font since, as we've been discussing of late, one font name can be a zillion different fonts. -Connie ___ FarsiWeb mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/farsiweb
Embeding farsi font for web pages
Hi every one, Di any one try to embed farsi fonts to use in web sites? I used M$ WEFT 3 for it. I able to embed Nesf & Nesf2 fonts but failed to embed other fonts such as "Mitra", "B Mitra" and such fonts that are avaliable on Parsa 99/2001. Have any one any idea for embeding other farsi fonts?

Persian Country List
salam, After searching almost all the net for a persian list of countries, I didn't find anything! Some websites use the english country list while others leave the users free to enter their country name. I remember I've seen a persian country list somewhere online, but don't know exactly where!

FarsiWeb will release fully compliant (with upcoming Persian Font Standards) fonts later. I know many people who reinstall their XP's, without updating, and as you know it is worse than having many fonts with the same names but different behaviors. --Mehran Mehr ___ FarsiWeb mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/farsiweb
Re: Font Problem (fwd)
As I said, I have many non-unicode compliant fonts on my XP and they were not affected by the critical updates so perhaps something else is involved. Next question: What are all these font packages we are suddenly hearing about? I only know about Farsiweb's Koodak which I thought was under construction and not yet ready for distribution. Perhaps Mehran and Behnam could provide some details about these fonts. Are they complete? Do they have all the characters? Do the diacritics position correctly? I'm worried there's going to be many fonts with the same names but different behaviors. -Connie ___ FarsiWeb mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/farsiweb

We hal the same problem here (FarsiWeb) with our WinXP machine; and the only Persian font (without microsoft's fonts) is our Koodak (alpha version). You could uninstall new updates or wait for our unicode-compatible fonts. (10 fonts of parsa.zip). :) -- Behnam Esfahbod ..[ http://esfahbod.info | behnam(a)esfahbod.info ] ___ FarsiWeb mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/farsiweb
