New issue 6806 by x...@chromium.org: Text not rendered correctly in RTL Chrome on English Windows XP http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=6806 <see b/1206120> When running the Hebrew or Arabic version of Chrome on a Windows XP English, some of the Chrome text is displayed with boxes. This problem occurs because the English version of Windows XP does not install right-to-left languages by default and therefore any directional Unicode formatting characters are displayed as boxes. This problem goes away if the right-to-left languages are installed by going to Control Pannel -> Regional and Language Options. The priority of this bug is pretty low because the vast majority of Hebrew/Arabic Chrome users will either use a localized version of Windows or they will have the right-to-left languages already installed. What we can do is let the user know that the right-to-left fonts need to be installed (rather than simply launch Chrome with gibberish text). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
