  • The problem is not clear... as least I failed to understand. Can you post some screenshot what you see vis-a-vis what you expect? I have worked with almost every popular language include RTL, Chinese, Korean, Japanese etc and their mapping in Unicode charset... may be of some help :) – gvaish May 19 '10 at 12:28

Android supports all Unicode characters, but Android does not have the fonts needed to display proper glyphs for many of those characters

To display any characters properly your application needs to use a font that contains glyphs for those particular characters. If you try to display a character that has no glyph in the font being used, you will simply get the default box displayed.
