Are quotation marks used in Indic text?
ya, sure
Is it better to remove them from the font??
I would like not to include those in fonts, but need to check if KDE has problem like "Danda" issue (bug #228267)

--- Comment #3 from Pravin Satpute psatpute@redhat.com 2010-01-20 00:59:48 EST --- i think better to improve shapes in indic fonts itself, so no dependency on other font
better to fix once for all fonts, thanks alam for notifying this bug it will really enhance fonts more

--- Comment #4 from Pravin Satpute psatpute@redhat.com 2010-03-18 01:45:06 EDT --- oops, sorry i did not noticed this earlier quote sinlge shape in lohit fonts is as per lohit style, Its sans-serif
so one show in image of other fonts is serif one
so i think we no need to change anything in lohit fonts, i will recheck its positioning
