All text in Flex uses Unicode, because the String class in ActionScript uses
Unicode. Right-to-left languages currently don't work well, but I'm not aware
of problems with Indic languages (although that doesn't mean there aren't any).
If your Indic text lives in MXML, AS, or XML files, I recommend using UTF-8
encoding.
You'll need to use a font that has glyphs for the languages you care about. I'm
not sure whether Flex's default font, Verdana, has Indic glyphs.
If you need to localize your application's user interface into various
languages, you should use the ResourceManager.
If anyone has already made Flex apps using Indic languages, please speak up
with any problems you found. There may be gotchas I don't know about.
