Hi,
Greetings to everyone.
I have a peculiar problem with coreldraw x4. My friend had sent me a word document with the Hindi Mangal Unicode font, and he had asked me to manipulate it. I downloaded the trial version and began to start working on it.
But the problem is that copying and pasting in word documents works fine, but when i copy fron word and paste it in CorelDraw X4 some glyphs and characters are jumbled / incorrect.
Could some one please help me on this issue.
Regards,
Sakthivel

Hi Man, whenever I have to bring my local language text from word into corel, I always use Print to File with any Postscript Driver. and that. prn file is imported fine in corel but it no longer remains the text.

Thanks for replying. When I try to copy / paste in Word it works fine. Mangal font is installed by windows when Regional Language is selected. Mangal is Hindi Font. The problem is when the text is copied from Word, the contents are intact in Clipboard, the problem arises only when it is copied into CorelDraw.
If you prefer I'll upload a screenshot .
Hi Sakthivel: Next question is, how do you paste, do you use the Paste Special options, or just normal Paste, Ctrl+V ? Know nothing about Hindi fonts, just guessing, I*m sure Anand will be the man who knows.
Hi Finn
There have been some issues with double byte fonts and DRAW. Mangal font is a devnagari script and is a double byte font like Chinese. The issue is that DRAW is not able to display or print the ligatures.IMO its a DRAW issue as the text copied on the clipboard if placed in word or openoffice, it works fine. This is already reported and I am sure to get a solution for this soon.

BTW, to my knowledge, CS4 also has the same issue. But then some third party has written a macro for CS4 which takes care of this. I have not used it as I don't have Adobe products installed on my machine.
