UNICODE FONTS IN INDESIGN CC 2018

[apb18677386]

Can you help me with using Mangal Hindi Font in Indesign CC 2018? I found that Aryan2Bilingual works fine. I work on Annual Report.  The MS Word 2018 files  (about 100 pages) are in Mangal Font (Unicode). Kindly help.  I had been compelling my Hindi Translator to always give file in Aryan2Bilingual.  But all the content received from outside our office is always in Unicode fonts.

What issue do you have with using Mangal Hindi Font in Indesign CC 2018?

Bringing the Text from MS Word File to Indesign.  The characters get disturbed.  They dont appear as Hindi text.

ex. विज्ञान appears broken in a different text.   The content copied from MS word file in any unicode font is not appearing

the same when copied in Indesign.

Copy and paste in InDesign loses the formatting unless changes are made in Preferences. Also, Word lets you see and use fonts that are not installed. Is the font installed?

I'm moving this thread from Adobe Creative Cloud to InDesign

Yes The Hindi Fonts are installed in my System both in Indesign and Windows.

Of course you did search before asking and you already tried suggestions such as in Re: Add Hindi and Punjabi fonts to InDesign and Issue with displaying Hindi script/font/language properly. and Hindi support in InDesign CS5 and I have a word file with Hindi text in Arial Unicode font. When i copy-paste the content in Indesgn C... (all found by searching the forum for "Hindi" alone), so I am assuming none of the offered solutions worked for you.

Therefore, you may want to explain in more details. I don't read Hindi but to my eyes this looks exactly like the text in your post:

How can we write न्न as न्‍न in indesign there are other words too like म्न  as म्‍न , श्व as श्‍व. The key equal to '=' does not work in indesign.
