The Current Font Does Not Support Kurdish Language Correctly on macOS #4016

Description

@rebeenmajeed

Quick summary

Hello,

Studio 1.12.0 included Central Kurdish language. There is an issue with the current font used for all languages. The font is not supporting the Kurdish letters like (ێ ۆ ڵ), which causes the words and sentences to break. This problem exists on macOS. I tested Studio on Linux, and the font used there does not have any problem.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start WordPress Studio.
  2. Go to Settings > Language.
  3. Change it to کوردیی ناوەندی

What you expected to happen

Texts should appear like this. I applied "Vazirmatn" font to these so you can see the difference. By the way, "Vazirmatn" font makes Studio look amazing. But if the same font that's applied on Linux can be applied on macOS, then the problem will be fixed.

This screenshot is from Linux Mint, which is also correct.

What actually happened

Studio currently looks like this in Kurdish. All the texts are broken and hard to read.
