One method used to work upto Windows 7, I'm not sure if it still works with Windows 8.First, remove all fonts that support the given locale, and remember to copy the font files to somewhere rather than just deleting them.Then, install the font you want to render the given locale. Open a document with characters from that range. In absence of the previous font font, Windows seems to fall back to the one available with characters defined in that range. Then install all the other fonts.
The one Windows had already set does not get changed even when the 'original' default font is available again.
Oppili2014-02-24 12:17:04 UTCTamil99 keyboard typing wrong display when converted to Latha font from the default lohit Tamil font in Ubuntu 13.10.Tamil99 is an intelligent keyboard layout which assumes word stresses (full stop above the letter), this display correctly in the default lohit font. When converted to Latha font it gives an extra letter in word inbetween for the stresses. Please remove the extra letter when conversion.Due to this limitation I have to make abiword as default, which does not display this error.Also want to mention one more since it might be related, the Tamil doc file typed tamil99 layout display a blank document in ms word. When selected all the space and converted to Latha font it display the above letter stress error.Please do the needful. Oppili2014-02-24 17:44:19 UTCA letter in word is stressed by mentioning a dot above it (like in 'i').Tamil letter pronounced asக without stress kaக் With stress. Ikபக்கம் - word.
PakkamIn the above word பக்கம் the stress (dot above 1st க) is automatically added while typing in tamil99 keyboard layout. It is done correctly in ubuntu 13.10 default Tamil font lohit tamil, only when font is changed to latha (more popular Unicode font) it is displayed as 'பகக்கம்' (note the extra க).பக்கம் Meaning - Pageபகக்கம் - No such word.The above saved doc file when opened in msword no Tamil words are displayed in lohit font, when the blank space is selected and font changedto latha it displays the word as 'பகக்கம்'.Only one word is given here for reference, Tamil language has many such words.Many thanks. Oppili2014-03-27 09:23:25 UTCThe Latha, Tamu Maduram and Lohit Tamil fonts works well now for Tamil99 keyboard.
Tamil Typing in LO writer using Unicode Tamil Keyboard works well for fonts Arial, Timesnewroman & Lohit Hindi, but the same fonts give wrong display if typed in Tamil99 Keyboard. This can be confirmed by converting the words to the above fonts in the doc file submitted. Hence requesting to make Tamil99 Keyboard typing compatible universally. Tamil99 is the best Tamil typing layout and recommended by Government of Tamilnadu. Many thanks for the interest shown.P.S: the issue with Latha font conversion does not exist now as reported on 2nd March. Now only requesting to make Tamil99 compatible for all fonts. Oppili2014-03-31 15:48:51 UTCI typed twice - using Lohit Hindi font, in tamil99 and Tamil unicode.
Other fonts are conversions (did not type all lines). Have tamil99 physical keyboard (only tamil98 layout physical keyboard is available in market) and for Unicode tamil layout used the onboard in Ubuntu 13.10.Do you have Lohit Hindi font installed?I have a feel that tamil99 compatibility is causing the problem, suspect tamil99 affects the unicode typing as well if selected after typing in tamil99 layout.If it cannot be rectified please stop Tamil letters appearing in Lohit Hindi (Hindi is a different language) & other non Tamil fonts, so that users will be forced to choose a working Tamil font.
