Public bug reported: gnome-terminal has some problems displaying Khmer text:
The Khmer Sign Coeng (U+17D2) functions to indicate that the following Khmer letter is to be rendered subscripted. The Khmer Vowel Sign Ae (U+17C2) needs to be rendered in front of the preceding character. However, that doesn't work in gnome-terminal. See attached screenshots how things are supposed to look like (as rendered in gedit) and how they look in gnome-terminal: ខ្មែរ (U+1781 U+17d2 U+1798 U+17c2 U+179a) word fragments: ខ្ម (U+1781 U+17d2 U+1798) ខែ (U+1781 U+17c2) System information: $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Release: 18.04 $ apt-cache policy gnome-terminal gnome-terminal: Installed: 3.28.2-1ubuntu1~18.04.1 Candidate: 3.28.2-1ubuntu1~18.04.1 Version table: *** 3.28.2-1ubuntu1~18.04.1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.28.1-1ubuntu1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages ** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "Expected rendering (gedit)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1916493/+attachment/5465939/+files/Khmer-expected.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1916493 Title: Rendering problems with Khmer text containing U+17D2 and U+17C2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1916493/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
