I don't know much about fonts either. ;-) Anyway, I did some research. "Urdu Nastaliq Unicode" seems to be the name of a specific font: http://tabish.freeshell.org/u-font/
Unless that font is interesting, we know at least that "Urdu Nastaliq Unicode" should be replaced in /etc/fonts/conf.avail/65-nonlatin.conf with something else. For me gnome-font-viewer finds both the Nafees fonts from the package in my PPA; it's just that it thinks that both are named "Nafees" only (see the nafees1.png attachment). If I click the one with the non-latin characters and then click "Info", I get a dialog that confirms that it's "Nafees Nastaleeq" (the nafees2.png attachment). ** Attachment added: "nafees1.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fonts-nafees/+bug/1153188/+attachment/3586946/+files/nafees1.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1153188 Title: Urdu with better support: Default Fonts, Kbd Layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/1153188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
