Yep, that’s what’s required for Vietnamese then. > About vi, I was reading earlier this morning on Gentium: «version of the > font with redesigned diacritics (flatter ones) to make it more suitable for > use with stacking diacritics, and for languages such as Vietnamese». > <http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page. > php?item_id=Gentium_faq&_sc=1#5d25a5da> > How many languages have such complex diacritics and is there some generic > enough font? Among Latin alphabets that we’ll be displaying, Vietnamese is a bit of a special case for stacking diacritics. GentiumAlt’s flatter diacritics allow it to fit Vietnamese on a standard-height line at the cost of some legibility. If anything, we need more exaggerated diacritics that can survive the distortions. > I doubt we can exclude words with diacritics, we'd only have > 500 left out of thousands in vi's case. Right, the whole point of this exercise is to include the diacritics. :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
