577706 - Oriya fonts are not displayed correctly in the content

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Text and Fonts, defect)

Attachment: Screenshot

With correct fonts installed, Firefox on Mac still has trouble rendering Oriya glyphs in the content.

See the attached screenshot. Many glyphs are displayed as boxes. For those that are displayed as glyphs, Manoj tells me that they are rendered separately, effectively breaking the content.

If you cmd-copy the content displayed as boxes to an editor (tested in TextEdit), Mac OS will display the glyphs, but also as separate characters.

Attachment: Oriya support on Mac X OS 10.7

with latest Mac 10.7, support expand to various other Indic langauges including Oriya [http://www.apple.com/macosx/whats-new/features.html#text]
so Website looks are good in Oriya for me.
other supported langauge: Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Sinhala, Telugu, and Urdu.

Resolving, as this is fixed on the OS side. WORKSFORME sounds adequate.
