Sir,
We would like to purchase Adobe, if we can find INDIC UNICODE SUPPORT (COMPLEX SCRIPT SUPPORT) in all products of DTP and DESIGNING kind. If anyone can help us whether we can expect such one in the future.

Thanks

      Similar case for Nepal. Most Nepalis use Nepali OTF (linked to the Devanagari Unicode Chart) for DTP applications. However, this is not possible for Pagemaker and other Adobe products. And Adobe products seem to the standard used by most layout and design team. What this means is that most publishing houses are not able to use unicode based fonts (which would allow for better search and other features) in Nepali. It would be great if Adobe could explain when it will extend support for complex scripts.

        Adobe, please respond to this query - its 9 months old! Most of Asia is shut out of your technology owing to lack of complex script support in virtually all of your products. Can you not at least use the default rendering engines in the OS platforms you have software for? We use most other software on Windows, Linux and even Mac OS without a problem now - but not Adobe products.

        And, your monopoly may soon run out...
