To rectify this i have to select the text and choose Lohit Hindi font to make it visible again. Second if i type a document and don't use bolding, italics or underline but keep the font option to ooo.org's default then it appears on the screen but while printing it appears as block characters, again to rectify this i need to select the content and change the font to Lohit Hindi So whats this problem and how can i get a permanent solution. Am wondering if there is any way open office (or my system) knows i am typing in hindi and automatically selects Lohit Hindi (or any other Unicode font) for the duration that keyboard selection remains at Ind(Hindi / Devanagari) Third - has any one got the open office hindi dictionary extension option working, if so what version of open office and how does it work. would appreciate your help thanks ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
