Applying the above solution to firefox creates major performance issues: 1. Firefox becomes slower, consuming 100% cpu at times and crashes quite often.
2. Galeon starts rendering Urdu pages incorrectly after applying the above solution. Our problem seems related to the patch applied for the bug <a href="https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/32561">#32561</a>. Now if we apply the MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=0 we would be using a slower Firefox with frequent crashes and work loss and If we don't apply this solution we wont be able to view Urdu pages properly. I should have added the attachments at the time of reporting the bug but at that time I was unaware of how bug tracking systems work. So here I am attaching a File displaying Epiphany displaying <a href="http://www.urduweb.org/mehfil">Urdu Mehfil</a> with Pango support enabled and Firefox displaying the same page without Pango support. -- Font rendering problem in Gecko based applications https://launchpad.net/bugs/54091 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
