Hi, I came up with this issue of fonts when i was visiting some websites in other languages like Hindi, I went to a website which displays all the text in Hindi, i was looking in the source of this HTML file and saw the font used as Webdunia, and the text was in english but some thing like 'fiUrhgh' which does not make sense, if u are using some common font like Verdana. For this text to make sense and appear properly have to use font webdunia, and then it strike me that it will be same for all the other languages which have font base other then latin. So i think if we have to develop a website for different langauges font is one of the very crucial things, for example the properties file in other language will have letter in english but will be rendered differently if used different font Hope this makes sense Ashish --- David Graham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I think he just wants to use a different font for > each language.
