  cursive text problems – ID CS ME

  Posted by Mordechai Nunberg on March 22, 2008 at 8:37 am

  Iv’e been searching the web for hours, trying to see if there is anything of help to my problem:

  When using syriac: ܠܝܫܢܐ ܣܘܪܝܐ (for a demonstration), the text becomes broken – compare:

  ܠܝܫܢܐ ܣܘܪܝܐ
  ܠ ܝ ܫ ܢ ܐ ܣ ܘ ܪ ܝ ܐ
  The first line is joined text, the standard for the language, and how it appears in word – the second is how it appears in indesign (although without the large spacing).

  I do not have this problem with Arabic – although that may be a result of the fonts available – the Syriac fonts have no kerning pairs – but have their own place on the unicode table. They are opentype fonts and can be seen here.. https://www.bethmardutho.org/meltho/

  I’m using windows XP SP2
