Mangal font i.e Hindi using cufon
BhanuChandar k
I have generated the Mangal_400.font.js and I tried the simple example
which is there at cufon
I tried like this
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<script src="cufon-yui.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Mangal_400.font.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
Cufon.replace('h1');
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>\u0915</h1>
</body>
</html>

\u doesn't work in HTML. See http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0915/index.htm
As for actually supporting Hindi.. I'm not sure. I guess you could try but I have a feeling it's not going to work. Looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devan%C4%81gar%C4%AB#Devan.C4.81gar.C4.AB_in_Unicode, it seems that Unicode does not have separate glyphs for all devanagari characters, which means that they would have to be dynamically constructed from two or more available glyphs. Cufón doesn't support that.

I was also trying to use the CDAC-GistYogesh font in cufon. Sadly its
not supporting unicode char's. It breaks some attached words. (eg.
स्वागत is lookin like स् वागत)
Please inform me if you found any solution.
Thanks,

Did you render this through JavaScript ? How did you do ? Do you have
any sample code. It will be very helpful if you share some of the
examples codes or any documentation . Looking forward for your replay.
