Try setting your locale to the language you want to use (e.g., to Hindi instead of English).
How do you do that?
I googled and 'guessed' this:
LANG="hi_IN.UTF8" wine wordpad; the above did not change a thing...
But, I am using and want to use LANG="en_US.utf8" cause 90% of my language use is english. so no point in changing the language. I used 'English' as interface language, not hindi.
And you can see that 'hindi' gets typed as expected with gurumaa-1.50 font. Freesans font *does* has hindi/indic support (albeit some hindi combinations are incorrect)
please see the attached 'rich text file' with wine wordpad, and openoffice, or abiword or kword. thanks.
