Re: URDU fonts

Paresh, What free Urdu font do you refer to? What version of Word? As was said previously, Arabic Windows 98 CANNOT be counted on for input of Unicode Urdu, as there are 14 characters missing from cp1256 and there is no keyboard. The font is likely a hack that is replacing other letters with Urd

If this font does not conform to Unicode and Windows standards, and apparently it does not, then it won't be recognized as an Arabic script font. I know there is one Urdu font on Microsoft's website, and also the Urdu keyboard. You can try downloading and using that font. Abdul-Majid Bhurgri

Good day, I am here once again with the URDU font problem. I downloaded one of the free URDU TTF fonts available on the Internet. But the problem is that it does not show up in the Arabic right to left typing in MS-Word. Rather it shows up in the English Left to Right typing. Can we use it alongwi

Two quick notes: 1. Not all of the characters in Unicode are also encoded in EUC-JP. (Note that the reverse *is* true: all EUC-JP characters are encoded in Unicode). 2. When you perform a conversion and some of the characters have been converted to "?", that means that the character being conver

Word's binary format (at least Word97's) was described on Microsoft's DevNet (e.g. MSDN Library - July 1999, search for: Microsoft Word 97 Binary File Format). Concerning the storage of code page/Unicode characters in the text area of a Word document, we encountered the following pecularity: T

Word 2000 uses Unicode, and a somewhat bloated format for RTF as it always have (extra tags around even the smallest pieces of text). To see more of it, save your doc to HTML some time and look at the tags :-) I believe the problem you are seeing has to do with limitations to compression tech

Effect on file size when using extended fonts in Word 2000

2000-12-19 Thread Dembek, Raymond F
Does anyone know the implications on file size when you add characters above 255 to a Word 2000 document on Windows 95/98/ME. Will this double the size of the paragraphs that contain these characters? I am primarily concerned with adding linedraw characters to paragraphs done in Courier New.

Dear Mark, It seems that rules P1--P3 of the Unicode bidi algorithm (for determining paragraph levels) don't make sense in some ways. I think that explicit directional codes should also be counted in this. So RLO and RLE would also be able to change the paragraph level to one, which is what a us
