Hi,
We tried to use Indian Native Language glyphs.
Actually we need to combine two separate glyphs into one (something like Arbaic, Hebrew) where the shaper is required
Input:
Glyph 1 : प (Unicode - 092A)
Glyph 2: ि(Unicode - 093F)
Expected Output :
Combining these two will provide : पि
Embedded Wizard Output:
By Combining these two glyphs :
I tried to paste the combined glyph in other editors like Notepad, Word Etc . There the result is what is expected (i.e पि)
But Embedded Wizard gives a different result, What is been actually done in this case ?
What the shaper does in this case?
Best Regards,

Hi Preethi,
Embedded Wizard supports (since version 9.10) bidirectional text (BIDI) output with left-to-right (LTR) and right-to-left (RTL) text writing order, as well as combinations of them. This makes it possible to show Arabic or Hebrew strings (RTL order) combined with Latin strings (LTR order). The bidirectional text output is implemented according to the Unicode Standard Annex #9 Unicode version 10.0.0.For printing Arabic strings, contextual shaping and mandatory ligatures are supported.
For other languages like Indic scripts and languages, there is no shaping available. In this case you have to use the character codes (code points) of the glpyhs with the combined shapes.
Best regards,
Manfred.
Just for the avoidance of doubts: Which scripts are you referring to? Within to UNICODE standard, the following Indic scripts are mentioned:
Can you please shed some light on this?
Thanks and best regards,Manuel
