Re: Moving Pagemaker to Indesign for Devnagri Fonts

@Peter – and there seems to be another problem with the provided TT fonts: They cannot be embedded in PDFs. The permission in the font is set to "Not embedable with PDF".

 

Tried the conversion process on Mac OSX 10.6.8 with InDesign CS5.5 and CS6.
Same problems found. Some glyphs are not showing up, even if I assign the provided fonts to the converted text.

 

Since the provided glyph set is not compatible with OTF encoding we could only do a large GREP Search/Replace action for every single gylph if we want to use something like an OTF Devanagari font. Simply assigning an OTF font is useless.

 

You can compare single glyphs and their codepoints in the provided TTF with the Unicode code points needed:

And as you can see here the TTF font is using the wrong code point in regards to Unicode (example: 0928 न DEVANAGARI LETTER NA)
