A script may exist but when it is in complete, does it serve its purpose?

The script exists and is being used.

Hoi, You can not really write a script when it is incomplete. Script conversion can come in several ways including dictionary based but it starts with the expression of the writing and that means script. Thanks, GerardM

I think the issue here is not with fonts or Unicode, but with the fact that the language is written in two different scripts, which don't have (and maybe can't have) a script converter between them.

Hoi, In the past the Wikimedia Foundation paid for the development of characters that became part of Unicode. Missing characters in an existing characterser are "easy. More complicated is to populate fonts withe these added characters..At the time the design of a non-Unicode font was used with permission. thanks, Gerard

It's actually possible to automatically convert between Devanagari and Urdu scripts, but it would require quite a lot of work. It's not a trivial task with straightforward character-to-character correspondences like Serbian, but it is possible and it has been done (not within Wikimedia, but by researchers in India)

There seems to be only one ISO code but two (incompatible?) writing systems. Thoughts? _______________________________________________ Langcom mailing list -- langcom@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe send an email to langcom-leave@lists.wikimedia.org
