the Complext Text is not rendered in 1.3.4
To enable Hindi Language, In Windows 2k, XP, a user is asked to insert 2k/XP cd to copy the language related DLL files for complex text processing and restart the system.
Does this hints that wine also need some native dlls to do CTL text handling?
Hello,
It is no not in the stable release and should be in 1.3.22 when that is released.
You will not need to do any special steps for notepad or areas where you can control the font. If you would like to see Hindi in dialogs or menus you will have to changed the key in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes "MS Shell Dlg"="Mangal" <- or the font you are going to use.
