[Fedora-i18n-list] Configuring default font
by Ali Majdzadeh
Hello All
Sorry, if my question is elementary. I have installed Persian fonts. Is
there a way to configure the system to use a special font as the system
default font? I can view and edit text using installed fonts, but I don't
know how I can specify a font to be the default one. (For example, in
desktop environments or widgets' captions.)
Best Regards

Re: F7 SCIM and StarDict problem

Hi,
I can input Chinese in the gtk combo boxes (see attached). So does it mean gtk
has no problem?
Thanks,
Tina

Notice: incomplete support for URDU language
by Mustafa Qasim
Hello!
The hurdle in the way to URDU translation is that Fedora 7 doesn't
support URDU read/write completely. Kindly pay your attention towards
developing complete read/write support in Fedora. I am not an expert but let
me know if I can play any part.
Waiting for your kind reply!

Quoting from the article:

Kudos to the folks who work on fonts.

F7 not fully supporting Urdu Language
by Mustafa Qasim
Hello!
I've joined Fedora l10n and Docs project as Urdu Translator. I have
installed the default support available in F7 for Urdu language and also
installed a couple of Urdu fonts but still I am not able to read/write Urdu
correctly. It displays broken words. Can I get guidance from one who is
working on Urdu support in F7. But it seems that I am the only one here who
is wiling to work in Urdu. I am a newbie but can anyone kindly guide me that
how can I learn the input operations in Linux so, I can help out l18n to
support Urdu in a complete and perfect manner.
