    hi,

    i have font path as:
    <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir>
            <dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>
            <dir>~/.fonts</dir>

    So i guess that is right.

    Now my problem is:

    When i open and type in gedit using devnagari selection in Edit-->
    Prefrernces--> Fonts and Colors..

    I can type Devnagari..
    But when i selecte say: Courier. all the typed words and Further typing
    comes a Rectangle box .

    What i am missing?

    Thanks in Advance.

    Paras.
