[RESOLVED] Need help with Arabic Font / Has anyone used DroidArabicNaskh font?

chipster123

I'm looking for a free Arabic font and the DroidArabicNaskh is relatively small at 96K. Has anyone used it and how do you like it? It's file size is smaller than the DroidSans.ttf (192K), so I was a little surprised.

I think I have to pack both font files into the app to allow locale/language selection of either.

Has anyone had ANY success using any Arabic font? I can't seem to get anything to display in the player, only on the console output.

Update: Fixed. The DroidArabicNaskh font works fine.

Just for other folks that will search the forum, what changed?

The problem was I was ignoring the error being logged by BhLocale in that there was an error in the ar.lua file being loaded so it reverted to the en.lua file.
The error that I keep hitting, is that my strings file (ar.lua, tr.lua, ...) sometimes have double quotes in them, which messes up the Lua string.
I just need to use single quotes in the body of the strings and all is well.
