Appendix B - Complex Script Support

Overview

In many cases, a user needs a touch panel user interface that utilizes a font applicable to the area for which its
use is intended, and to accomplish this without needing to resort to images of properly formed text. This
includes proper rendering of right-to-left languages such as, but not limited to, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai and
Devangari (FIG. 63).
Both the NXD-500i and TPDesign4 (v3.1 or higher) support complex script languages, to the extent that the
True Type font currently selected for that state supports the language in question.
TPDesign4 allows the user to type the desired text into a project, view it in G4Panel Preview, and download it
to the panel.
Most languages can be entered into the state property field in TPDesign4 via the
Windows language bar.

In some cases, the user may need correct rendering of mixed left-to-right and right-to-left text, and may
display both of these together in the same page (FIG. 64). Text edit boxes only operate left-to-right.
