I typically want to use Indian Language Font Shruti.
Can I use it in Form (EditText) to take input from the user ?
I also want to save the same in Sqlite database.

How can I ? Please guide.

TIA
Milan.

Hi,

Unfortunately Xailer controls do not support unicode (Is on our wish list) and I really do not know if Unicode is necessary for that language. I can't test it from here either. With SQLite I can presume that you will not have any problem since SQLite does not make any type of conversions on CHAR fields, they are treat as RAW fields.

Regards,

I wish that happens soon. It will be very beneficial.

I have verified and it is necessary. BTW Windows load that font when country India is selected.

Yes, I tried it and it works with SQLite.

With best regards,
