Hi,

I am using the latest release of rasbian jessie OS. I am running a c# application through mono on jessie. I see my application window shows the persian and arabic characters as reverse and disconnected. Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue.

If I run a java application, that shows the persian character correctly, where as C# through mono only shows the persian characters as disconnected. Is it the problem with OS or Mono Cross compiler. Can Anyone give my solution which is very very urgent

Have you actually set the encoding scheme to UTF8?

Hi,

I am running the application in Raspberry pi, which has Rasbian jessie OS. In that i have installed Mono. I compile my C# application in windows, and run the executable in Raspberry pi using mono. My application is simple, a form which displays Persian text. I read from a file and assign the text to a textbox of a windows form application.
I compile using the visual studio. When i run the application on raspberry pi, i see the text box content are reversed and disconnected.
I tried opening the file in UTF8 and UNICODE format, and read the content. Both way the text are disconnected only.

The problem might be the font used. A good source of Persian fonts is
http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Arabic.html
To install a font in Linux. create a folder .fonts in your home directory and just put the font into it.

Dear Sir,

I have already tried so many fonts from this web site, could not succeed. Reverse problem i somehow managed to correct it, but disconnected display only issue.
I have attached a sample windows form, which displays the disconnected characters. Kindly have a look.

Best Regards,

The problem must be in the Mono system of C#, but I know nothing about them. A search for "C# persian" came up with this, which I can't read but you obviously can!

I just can remind that most software that implement the bidi algorithm (see also here) rely on the fribidi library mostly written by Behdad Esfahbod. So, if some software doesn't properly display Persian text I would check if it relies on fribidi directly or indirectly and how it uses it.

Sorry not to be able to help more.
