Good effort and idea, Lin.
Just for your reference, uniscribe and opentype is
not officially
shape burmese. Pango is also not officially shape
burmese. You could
try http://sourceforge.net/projects/prahita but it
uses PUA.
Recently Padauk release version 2
(http://scripts.sil.org/Padauk)
which include lastest milestone unicode confrontment
for Myanmar
scripts and recommanded. You need Pango-Graphite
patch. Read more at
http://www.unimm.org/cms/node/18
I'm a developer from http://www.unimm.org. You may
somehow try at
https://launchpad.net/rosetta/
which you can find me
https://launchpad.net/people/haalaaluu
There are other few people joining, too. We did some
translation with
partial unicode font. Please let me know for any
update.
