generateCachedPages issue

Hi there,

I'm trying to load a font using your library into my iOS application.
I'm using "sheenFigureCG". I was able to use it before with some fonts.

Now I'm trying a new font, and here is the problem: Inside the method called "generateCachedPages" at:
float lineHeight = self.font.leading;

the lineHeight value gets a nan value and the application crashes.
Is there anyway I can fix this ?

Please find the font I'm using uploaded here:

Ligature Anchor Problem

Salam dear brother,

First I want to congratulate you on this wonderful job you've done. In my point of view you're a genius!

I had lately a problem with a font (UthmanicHafs1 Ver09). I'm sure that this font is well done and I verified personally all its tables (in particular the Lookup tables) but I still have the problem you can see on the screenshot in attachement. So I concluded that your program might have a little bug. Can you please see what is the matter.

Thanks in advance.

Yours,

Ahmed.

Using a new type of fonts

Hi,
Thank you for your benefit library , I want to use it for developing an iOS app that used arabic fonts, but as I read in the Readme file, the library supports only Nastaliq or Naskh fonts, and it needs some additions for another type of fonts, could you please tell me what these additions are if I want to use it with other type of arabic fonts?

Regards,
Noor.

Malayalam support

Hi,

Thanks a lot for this library. I'm trying to get Malayalam rendering using your code. But ligature substitution is not working. Could you please point me to the code where I should be looking? Here is the font that I use http://jeesmon.csoft.net/fonts/Kaumudi.ttf

ex: ത + ് + ത (\u0D24 + \u0D4D + \u0D24) should render ത്ത (glyphid: ml_t_ta (65581))

Thanks,
Jeesmon

TextColor issue

Hi there,

Thank you for this powerful library, it helped me a lot with loading custom fonts with arabic texts, for my iOS app.

But There seems to be a problem with setting the text color, I noticed that whatever UIColor I use, the text always appears as black or red.

Is there anything that may fix this problem?? I want my text to be white, how would I do that ?

Thanks,
Roula.

Suggestion: Text Index should be return against any touch point

is this possible that we could find the text index by providing the touch point to SSTextView?

libsheenfigure.a missing

Hey man,
I love this project, it looks promising!

Here is the thing:
libsheenfigure.a is showing in red and seems to be missing.
I am also getting a compilation error in Xcode:

include <ft2build.h> <--- File not found

Android ScrollView issue

mashaAllah you've done a brilliant job here, just a slight problem with Android:

When trying to use a scrollview, if the urdu/arabic text is longer than the screen, when the screen is scrolled the rest of the screen is blank i.e. the bitmap doesn't get drawn.

I hope I've made myself clear - to reproduce just set the text of the textview to something really long.

Text height and some other issues

Hello,

I would like to thank you again for this great library, i see how much effort you put in.

I am having two issues with the library. I need to get the actual height of rendered text to customized the super view based on the height of the text, seems there is no direct way to do that although it is extremely important.

The other issue was that in some situations the words at the end of the line are clipped.

I am not sure why it happens but it seems to be a bug.

Uthmanic Hafs issues

Hello,

I am developing Quran application that uses Uthmanic Hafs font. This great library successfully rendered the Quran with some issues.

This font uses Arabic number as Aaya number, where when you type an Arabic number it will automatically put a frame on it, the maximum number of digits is 3 because Quran doesn't have any Soura that has more than 3 digit Aaya count.

This is rendered in MS Word.

And this is how it was rendered in SheenFigure:

You can see that it separates the number into 1 and 52 where it should be 125 into one frame.
