KufiStandardGK.ttf is not fully working

[muhammadnasr]

Thank you for your great work.

I tried your library with KufiStandardGK.ttf (that comes with mac os x). And some character did not appear correctly like initial WAW, initial alef without hamza

Can you investigate on that?

BTW I used to know that these code http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/3529/Arabic-Support-for-Windows-CE works long time ago. Does your code hase any differences from it?

Thanks.

What do u mean by didn't appear correctly? as i tried the font and the characters were showing up.

Thank you for your reply.
in iOS 5 some characters like initial WAW appear as a square.
in iOS 6 the system just replace the square with system font character.

it seems like the problem is with the font, i tried another font and it is working ok, but the font you mentioned did show the WAW and Alef as squares.

Same happend with me, I ended up using Driod Kufi font.

I actually opened the font with font editor and found that it doesn't implement the FEED which is the isolated WAW, which causes the square to appear, i think if u edited the font and added this it will work normally

[muhammadnasr]

Thanks for this valuable information.
Can you recommend a font editor on mac os x?

BTW this font is used and working fine on Mac OS X.

you can use Fontlab, it is not free but really good,
i know it will be working fine on Mac, but i don't know how they do it :), but all i am doing is converting normal codes to Arabic Presentation Forms B, so it should work with all complete implementation fonts.
