Re: [gtk-i18n-list] Need help

I found an old discussion that DevanagariMT bundled to older
Mac OS X was not OpenType but TrueType/GX.

http://forums.adobe.com/thread/536957?decorator=print&displayFullThread=true

Pango may not render correct Indic text with TrueType/GX fonts.
There is a free OpenType for Devanagari (see the article in above),
please try to check if your issue is font-specific or library-specific.
