Hindi font half letters getting converted

Hi,

I have some text in Hindi language that should appear as क्या appears as क् या which is not the way I want.

I am embedding fonts, but however flash is auto converting the "half letters". These sentences are getting read from an XML (which is UTF-8 encoded) and being directly applied into the textfield. In Flash Professional it shows up fine but when I check it in the app it appears as above. Anything that I am missing out on here?

Here is the textfield settings in my code:

tf.multiline = true;

tf.wordWrap = true;

tf.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;

Look forward to your reply.

Regards
