Font Problem (fwd)

2003-10-23 Thread Payam Poursaied


Hi
Having installed one of latest critical updates for XP ( don't know 
exactly which one) my persian fonts aren't accessible anymore.
and when try to install them I received damaged font file message.
nazanin is one of these fonts.
looking through newsgroups I found that someone in other countries get in 
same trouble.
I have heared that incompatibility with unicode in such fonts cause these 
problem.
have anyone more experience or information about this issue?

Payam,
I don't think it's related to incompatibility with unicode. I have XP and
after all the critical updates all my Persian fonts are working fine.
Hopefully you can just download and install the fonts again.

You goofed Connie.  Forgot that there are zillions of different
versions of those fonts?

Beggin' your pardon but I did not goof!
How could I possibly forget there are zillions of different versions?!
However, they all have one thing in common and that is that they aren't
unicode compliant and that was the expressed concern.

The Problem is in name table of Original Parsa Fonts. This table shows 
0x14 names for all Original Parsa Fonts, but there is fewer names there 
than 0x14.
