2002-04-05-08-trunk build on Solaris 7 SPARC, I can't browse the example page without getting lots of '?' where the arabic glyphs should be. Steps to reproduce: % xset +fp /usr/openwin/lib/locale/ar/X11/fonts/75dpi/ % xset +fp /usr/openwin/lib/locale/ar/X11/fonts/TrueType % ./mozilla http://www.ayna.com/ Expected result: Page viewed with normal arabic glyphs Current result: Page viewed with lots of '?'

-> Int

Bidi issue -> smontagu

cc:'ing shanjian and ftang Simon/Shanjian: can we get a list of the fonts that are being loaded to help see what is happening?

bstell: What kind of output do you need exactly ?

bug 119537 ("get exclmation marks instead of characters") seems to be a similar issue ...

eventually we will need to know about a specific char in a specific font.

bstell: The fonts I've used were the standard arabic fonts shiped with Solaris 8: -- snip -- NASKHMT.ttf -monotype-naskh-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-6 NASKHBD.ttf -monotype-naskh-bold-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-6 AKHBARMT.ttf -monotype-akhbar-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-6 AKHBARBD.ttf -monotype-akhbar-bold-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-6 SHAYMT4N.ttf -monotype-shayyal-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-6 SHAYBD.ttf -monotype-shayyal-bold-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-6 -- snip -- They are displayed correctly in "xfd" - only Mozilla does not them... ;-(

Roland: would it be possible to make a sample page with just one char that does not display and also to show that same char in xfd?

I'll mark it as verified as dup. Please re-open if disagree, otherwise please add comments in bug 78201.
