From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031030 Description of problem: Apparently, the FreeType autohinter cannot handle Indic fonts correctly. Freetype with bytecode interpreter enabled works fine. I don't suppose Fedora will be enabling that - so the best solution will be disable autohinting for the MuktiNarrow font. The following lines are needed in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf <match target="font"> <test name="family"> <string>Mukti Narrow</string> </test> <edit name="hinting"> <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open gedit 2. Copy paste the text আমার নাম সায়মিন্দু into gedit 3. See the rendering Actual Results: The glyphs are not being aligned properly Expected Results: The glyphs should line up correctly.
