No idea, but I'll enquire. In the mean time, it seems reasonable.

Well if by Latin script you mean Greek, Cyrillic, Armenian, Georgian, etc., then
this must be correct. I admitted that I know next to nothing a

We recently added hyphenation patterns for Armenian in hyph-utf8
(http://tug.org/svn/texhyphen/trunk/hyph-utf8/tex/generic/hyph-utf8/patterns/tex/hyph-hy.tex)
and it's now been propagated to TeX Live, so, yes.

Going even further why are you using a special font for the

when I write mixed text (say Greek/English) I always use a font

Hi,
I'm new to XeLaTex, but I've done some simple documents with Greek,
Arabic, and Hebrew. Today, however, I tried one with some Armenian
text but had no luck at all. Armenian seems not to be recognized. What
am I missing?
An example is below. Thanks in advance for any help.
