It is an answer just not the one you want to hear.
I am not saying anything for or against having unicode support for what you need. I am simply saying it is not there and has not been promised to you that it would be there. Now if Affinity had said this feature was coming by May 2021 and it was not here then I could see some disappointment as you may have purchased with that feature in mind and the promise of it soon. Affinity does not owe you or anyone anything in terms of features. They are in this to make money, as any business should be. They must navigate offering features the masses want while being realistic with their work load. They are not Adobe, they do not have billions in the bank and a massive work force.
In regards to your question about why they would sell in Indian? If my emails are anything to believe there are plenty of Indian companies working with the N. American market and wanting to do work for cheap. I do not use the services but get the spam emails regularly offering various graphical services.
Nothing wrong with asking for features to be added, it is welcomed on the forum. Your original post was not exactly a request but a demand for when it would be ready and how the software is a "waste" if not implemented. I am sure some of it is the language barrier and my perception of what you wrote and I could be way off base. I still stand by my reply that purchasing software without testing to make sure it works for your intended use is not a wise move and should always be done first. Affinity offers 30 day trials and sometimes even 90 trials, all fully functional. This is to help avoid this exact situation of purchasing and then finding out you can't do what you want with your purchase.
No, You are wrong. That is not a proper answer. If yes, Affinity could answer as such. But they didn't.
And I didn't meant Not at all waste. hence I'm using all three Affinity apps for other works too. If a basic future is not in the product, Then anyone can say it. And I said it "Unless". I Requested for sure. But I was excited and enthusiastic. That's all.
As for the rest of your words are not sufficient to answer.

They delete their official roadmap 😁
My 1st Affinity was 1.6 and at that time there was a roadmap for 1.X with Trace-Envelop-etc etc. 🤣
As an Indic language user I can assure you it will not come anytime soon (I wish Affinity prove me wrong). I asked it from 2010 maybe (Plus Applications). Now you have one option try Shreelipi nxt with their ANSI fonts and forget about Open-type feature.
Yes I have Shreelipi. But some times I have to work with Unicode fonts. That's why I'm requesting.

I see nothing in the post by @wonderings that deserves to be labelled as ‘abuse’.
The Affinity apps do support Unicode, but if you know a modest amount about Unicode you should be aware that there’s a huge range of features in the specification. Unicode Indic fonts require the use of particular features that are not currently supported by the Affinity apps, but most other fonts work very well.
yes, I agree. That is why I am requesting. I hope They will consider (I know it may/will take far time .) Thanks for replay.

I can answer your question regarding font support for Indian languages. If it is something you need and it is not supported by Publisher then Publisher is not the app for you at the moment. You should always test the software out before buying and if something is so crucial then it should not be purchased as it does not do what you need it to do.
This is not an answer. This is an abuse. Affinity is a text editing software and I have purchased it for that work only. And I am requesting for "Unicode font support". If you think , An editing software don't have support for Unicode fonts is a proper thing, I can assure, you don't know what Unicode fonts are. And you didn't get the term "Unicode" . font support is the basic future for any text editor. And as per your logic, I can ask too "If you don't want to support the Indian Unicode fonts , why the hell you selling it in India?" (But, I don't want to. I have respect for this software developer. This is the great one. Unfortunately I'm forced to wrote it for sack of your language used to answer. ) And finally, if requesting support for a font is sin, Then what for this forum ?

Hi @Hayavadana,
I'm part of the Affinity Forums moderation team and a member of Technical Support for Affinity/Serif - I understand this is a little counter intuitive, however I'm commenting here to inform you that our team doesn't tend to reply to feature requests / feedback here, my apologies.
We take all feedback into consideration and our team read these posts, but due to the nature of feature requests we don't usually respond to these posts as we can't provide any timescales or promises.
I hope this clears things up
Hi,
Good evening, I can understand you, but can you us ?
What ever. but, Please consider this at least- "without font support, how can we work in publisher ?" Tell me as bold as you was, Is it not a true question ? Is it not a true issue ? Is is not a considerable one to moderator / developer?
Think this hypothetically, "You bought a new device and have to work/make, lots of stuff laying down, Your device is great and well activated but not working? " What will you do ? ( I want answer from your honesty, as a user if you can)
Thanks for replay, dude.

Hello Affinity,
When can we expect the Unicode font support for Indian languages ?
Unless the font support it is waste even for having a great software.
And also practically speaking, without font support, how can we work in publisher ?
Affinity suit is a great and brilliant I ever had for a resalable price. And your support is also admirable.
So, hopefully I request you, please provide Unicode and true type font support for Indian Languages.
I have no attachments here for. because you already know, and you only know the subject of this request.
(I expect, at least a replay from affinity)

Hello, sir
I don't know why, but after one and a half years I'm reading this thread again. And yes, You were right. And I'm feeling now "I was rude and stupid in my words". Hence, I apologize to you for being rude. Yes, I had to try before buying. I didn't check for Unicode support, blindly purchased seeing Shreelipi software support.
But, I can surely tell you my intent was to request, not demand. I was wrong maybe with my words. I couldn't express my purpose well, as I meant.
Thanks for your patience reply.
