Hi There, I've tested just now your App for my name in Persian and I got disappointed. Is there any chance to get this characters as SVG? Best Regards

Hello, can you give some example text and font name to help determine the cause of the issue?

example text: سلام دوست عزیز، ممنونم ازت Font: Gulzar

Hi @shahram7, try going to Google Fonts and search for fonts supported by language. Here is a list of fonts in Arabic.

Hi Dan, Arabic and Persian are very similar but they're not the same. I think google has removed all Persian/Farsi Fonts due to sanctions! but there is still some Fonts, which are compatible for both language. https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Lalezar https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Gulzar https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Mirza https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Nastaliq+Urdu https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Vibes https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Harmattan

Yes, I believe it's font specific as to which languages are supported. Perhaps our UI should have a language dropdown?
