I converted some Mylai-Sri (Tamil) Type 1 fonts to unicode. I can open
these in Pages, select the text, choose the native Mac OS X Tamil
unicode font: Inaimathi New and I get Tamil glyphs... if I copy and
paste to a field in Livecode it appears as expected.
But, now, I want to import the same unicode raw text files that I am
opening in Pages into Livecode fields by script.
I cannot get it to work:
on mouseup
answer file "Choose the Unicode for this song" with "OK"
put url ("file:/" & it) into tUnicode
set the unicodetext of fld "Unicode_Script_Title" to line 3 of
tUnicode
# though the above should do it ,but I get garble in the field,
#this does not help either:
set the textfont of char 1 to -1 of fld "Unicode_Script_Title" to
"Inaimathi New"
# still garble
end mouseup
clues?
