Oh, that. Now I understand. You mean the language names in the module selection tree itself. Yes, Inuktitut is a problematic font. This is a Windows-centric problem. We have no knowledge of where Windows as a whole, or GTK-under-Windows (one of the several display toolkits Xiphos must use), finds its idea of default application font. Surprisingly to me, Windows seems the most crippled as to font awareness when compared to any UNIX or Linux system, which invariably in my experience are perfectly capable of handling such fonts. When my Linux system first wants to display a new font, GTK-driven programs pop a dialog to ask if they should go hunt it down. If someone knows how to handle such problems in Windows, I'm sure we'd all appreciate the education. _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
