When writing Bangla in Unicode, the characters are breaking down.  Not showing in the correct format.  I have commented on this before.  Thanks also for the response.  But the problem still remains.  Not writing in Bengali properly and importing pdf breaks the Bengali fonts in that file.  Please look into the matter.
I have given a document, which contains some information. Thanks in advance and good luck.  I also got the problem using Affinity Publisher 1.8.4.648 beta.

Bangla Unicode format is not properly written in Affinity, and when importing a pdf, the Bengali fonts in that file are broken..rar

Hi @sifatboy,

Sorry for the delayed reply.

We are aware of this and it has already been logged with our developers. 

Is this solved?

Could you please confirm whether the issue with text breaking has been resolved? I am considering purchasing Affinity Publisher for writing my Bangla book.

I think Serif is less interested or has no interest or enough capability to provide us an Indic Open type support.

 

Personally I think it will never come.

That is correct. I too have been waiting for RTL support - It will never be introduced in version 2 or 3 for that matter. Best ti  find an alternative solution rather than waiting for any non-latin based language support. Serif have expressed ZERO percent interest and never designed the software with that in mind.

Bengali is an LTR language, so the issue is lack of support for Indic scripts. However, in both cases I believe the solution to the problems would involve a complete rewrite of the text engine.

Do you really believe that Serif Developers have that amount of knowledge to rewrite a decent text engine for LTR support for their Affinity? 🤣

You’d think they would have done it by now if they did have the necessary knowledge! We know that they had to draft in outside help to create Middle East versions of some of the ‘Plus’ applications a few months after the western X5 applications were released.

It makes no difference - The fact of the matter is there is NO support!
