Dear list, I am using fontconfig 2.1 with pango 1.2.0 and GTK+ 2.2.0. In my ~/.fonts directory, I installed the Devanagari OpenType font "Raghindi" (raghu.ttf), and it is duly found by fontconfig, as evidenced by its appearance in the font selection dialogues of GTK+ 2 applications. However, when rendering text with the GTK+ default fontset ("Sans"), such as in file selection dialogues, fontconfig/pango/GTK+ insist on using the ClearlyU bitmap font for Devanagari instead of Raghindi. ClearlyU contains some Devanagari glyphs, but obviously lacks all GSUB/GPOS information, and is consequently completely unsuitable for the rendering of Devanagari text: all consonant conjuncts and consonant vowel combinations fail to be properly combined. How can fontconfig be configured to return a Devanagari font that is of actual use to the font renderer (Pango)? In general, would it not make sense to teach fontconfig not to return fonts in formats that are unsuitable for the script to be rendered (i.e., return if available only OpenType fonts for Indian scripts, etc.)?
