There are a couple of fonts floating around - most burmese use zaygyi for day-to-day stuff, while the BBC and some other sites use myanmar1 or myanmar3. Some also use Paduak or Parabaik - but these tend to be for regional languages other than burmese (the country has at least a dozen languages in common use)
Unless Zawgyi is installed, anything written in burmese intended for display with it comes out with characters upside down and/or mirrored. My wife complains _very_ loudly when this happens. There was a request to package back in 2008 - see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=884814 See http://myordbok.com/myanmar-fonts as a starting point (it's a translation site but keeps font information too - with no indication of their licensing) code.google.com/p/zawgyi/wiki/MyanarFontDownload has links to known (L)GPL fonts -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896527 Title: Font rendering problem at Burmese Language To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/896527/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
