To test, you may use the Gargi.ttf font available in this rpm:

Hi Chris,
Here are some test case you can use for your printing. Tried with
firefox-1.0-9.EL4. It is still not possible to print indic characters.

Fixing the summary and reassign to the existing engineer that works on it.
Comment 2 Jesse Keating 2006-10-03 20:54:43 UTC 
Is this still an issue?  The bug blocking it is in modified state, is this
really a FC6 blocker?
Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2006-11-01 19:52:48 UTC 
This has been included in firefox-1.5.0.7-8.fc6.
