Hi,

I am working on Indesign CS6, Windows operating system

I am having a problem in Indian language kannada, some of the letters are not correctly being shown in Indesign but the same thing in microsoft office 2007 is being shown correctly i have attached the sample documents for Indesign and office 2007 with the kannada language font.

These fonts works correctly in other text editors but not in indesign

Even I have selected the adobe world ready paragraph composer, but the result is same letters are displayed correctly

?

    I think:

    1. Installing Nudi software
    2. Typing the text in Nudi editor
    3. Pasting it to Premiere as is
    4. Changing font to Nudi

    -worked pretty straight forward for me.

    It's the latest version I know about of Premiere Pro, though.

    On my Computer, Mac OS X 10.10, InDesign CC 2014 it look like this without changing anything, except bringing the font into the Document fonts folder aside the original InDesign file:

    Can you show us, how it looks like on your computer and where you have installed the fonts?

    Maybe you should install additional a different language version, I have additional installed several MENA versions, so I have installed the complete World Composer including all additional files.

    I am not an expert on fonts, but my impression is that this is a problem with this font and the combining forms. The text seems to appear properly in the Tunga font.

    But that font works correctly in office document i have attached. And it works with other editors correctly?

    The fact that the font works in Word or other editors is no guarantee that it will work in InDesign. ID is much pickier in the fonts with which it will work. You will probably need to find an OpenType version of a Unicode compliant font for this language.
