I rooted my Xperia Neo L phone which is running Android ICS 4.0.4 and installed Kannada font (Lohit-Kannada.ttf). I have also included the Lohit-Kannada font as family-set in fallback_fonts.xml in the framework. After that, I am able to see the kannada fonts render in browser but the complex script is not supported. Glyphs are not rendered in proper way, though it is just readable. Other indic languages like Tamil, Hindi, Bengali etc renders perfectly but my language is not rendering properly. Someone suggested me to go thru this blog.</span><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://androidandsandu.blogspot.in/2011/12/how-to-add-indian-languages-to-android.html" rel="nofollow" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(74, 107, 130); text-decoration: none; cursor: pointer; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">http://androidandsandu.blogspot.in/2011/12/how-to-add-indian-languages-to-android.html</a><span style="font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> But i'm not able to find out where to make those file changes. I mean where is that lohit-fonts directory, where is the android.mk file? I'm not able to find those folders or those files in my phone. Any help please?</span> </div> <br> </blockquote> If you can get 4.1.1 or 4.2.x Android then you can find Kannada is already supported. See <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.android.com/about/jelly-bean/">http://www.android.com/about/jelly-bean/</a><br> <br> The above link you are referring to is related to ICS (4.0.4) source code. If you have ICS source code then whatever steps given in that link is still valid. But as that time rendering engine does not support Kannada language, you will not get conjuncts getting rendered correctly. Better try latest version or at least 4.1.1 for correct rendering.<br> <br> In 4.0.4 version, fully supported Indic languages are Bengali, Tamil and Hindi.<br> <br> Regards,<br> Parag.<br> </body> </html>
