Before seeking sponsorship, the Urdu users need to confirm that the proposed patch actually improves the rendering as intended. The change affects Urdu users only, so no regression risk for other users. ---------------------------------- 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)?
