Re: [OT] Arabic script langs in 3.0 ; list?
Add to the list Brahui (spoken in Pakistan, mostly in Baluchistan province), Darri, and Parkari (spoken in areas of Thar desert area bordering Pakistan and India). About 12 years ago I had made a font for Parkari language at the request of Christian missionaries who published translation of Bible in Parkari language. Thanks for compiling such comprehensive list.

Hello, Unicode 3.0 mentions 11 contemporary languages written in Arabic, most from Central Asia, none from Africa except Arabic---Berber is not mentioned. Is Arabic script no longer used south of the Sahara? Or does standard Arabic script easily cover relevant African languages? My usually excellent university library did not answer this question also: today how many languages are written in Arabic script?

Re: Clarification of Arabic joining classes
First, a clarification/correction. As pointed out by Roozbeh, it is zero width non-joiner and not zero width space that we are talking about. You are correct about behaviour of letter preceding 'zero width non joiner'. - Original Message - From: "James E.

Re: font problem
Which particular Urdu font did you install into Arabic word as worked in OUTLOOK but behaved erratically in WORD? Regards Majid Bhurgri From: "mlinguist" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Unicode List" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: font problem Date: Fri, 22 Sep 2000 09:02:56 -0800 (GMT-0800) Hello to all. Which are the Devnagari (HINDI) fonts that can be used for making websites in HINDI, in Unicode format? Do Kruti/Narad fonts adhere to the Unicode? Also, if someone could suggest, are there any compatible URDU fonts available for Arabic Windows-98. We tried installing some free fonts available on the Internet, into Arabic Windows. The strange fact is that they work fine with OUTLOOK, but when we tried typing in WORD, the font was erratic and from left to right.
