Abdellah / Shabbir, I have talked with Sebastien Bacher on IRC, and we consider that the proposed changes (see comment #18) are uploaded to Ubuntu 13.04.
However, since the changes affect all Urdu speaking users, can you please provide some kind of testcase that shows how the rendering of Urdu text is improved through the changes. I'm not sure how this is best done; maybe in the form of screenshots before/after. It would be great if you could provide something that makes us more confident that the proposed changes is a step in the right direction. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to fontconfig in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1153188 Title: Urdu with better support: Default Fonts, Kbd Layout Status in Fontconfig - Font Configuration Library: Confirmed Status in “fontconfig” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Debian: New Bug description: Default fonts in Ubuntu show ugly Urdu text. It's better that language-selector sets "Nafees Regular" (Nafees Web in fonts-nafees package) as default font for all font families (SansSerif, Serif...except mono) used in Ubuntu. I would like to ask, if language-selector is able to set specific keyboard layout for Urdu for 1st time? Please Shabbir: Could you write here the best setting for Urdu Fonts (Using "Tweak Tool": Scale Factor, Hinting, Anitaliasing, Size)?
