Hindi characters display wrong

Software:

I'm using Windows 10, and  Premiere Pro version 2017.0.2

Problem:

In Premiere Pro, certain Hindi characters do not display correctly when I make a title.

Description:

I have a word document with some Hindi text.  If I copy and paste the text into a title in Premiere, it shows up with different Hindi letters.  I have tried several fonts (Devanagiri New, Sanskrit, Mangal) and it's the exact same problem every time.

You can see the Hindi text on the Left, inside a word documet.  If I copy and paste the text into a Premiere title, it shows up incorrectly.  You can see that in Premiere, on the right, it's different characters.

Additional information:

In the screenshot you can see I'm copying from LibreOffice Writer, but I also tried Notepad, and I even tried copying from my Chrome browser, and it's always the same problem.

I have the exact same problem copying into Photoshop, just FYI.  But I'm interested right now in solving the problem for Premiere

Can anyone Help?

The problem has been solved.  I needed to go to Edit>Preferences>Titler and change the text engine to South Asian. 

Adobe support helped me figure this out, in a chat.
