The nine languages that need a non-Latin face now get one. The fallback
chain asked for each candidate font by name and compared the name that came
back, because GDI+ substitutes silently. That could not tell a real font from
a substitute, and it rejected fonts that were installed. It now asks the
installed font collection directly. Nepali was the reported case; Arabic,
Persian, Urdu, Kurdish, Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese and Korean all went
through the same path.
Section labels no longer break the scripts that need shaping. They are
drawn with letter spacing, which meant placing each character separately, which
meant Devanagari conjuncts never formed and the Arabic-derived scripts lost
their joining. Those languages are now drawn as whole runs. In every other
language the spacing is unchanged, except that a character made of more than
one code unit is no longer split in half.
