यह वाक्य
हिन्दी में
है
If you can read the above text in Hindi, then you don't need to do anything. Your system is already capable of displaying all of the Hindi found on this site. However, you may see one of four things instead of readable Hindi:
- Question Marks
- Junk Characters
- Blocks
- Badly Formatted Hindi
If you see question marks, your browser is more than likely simply too old. Upgrading is the easiest answer. Junk Characters are another easy fix, you need to set your encoding (Typically in an "Encoding" submenu, in IE it is under
"View") to Unicode UTF-8. After doing this, you may see readable Hindi, but you may instead see blocks or bad Hindi.
Displaying blocks is a symptom of Unicode working properly, but your browser lacking the fonts to display them.
Visit Devanaagarii.net for a list of fonts that you can use and a good tutorial on setting them up on a variety of operating systems.
If you see Hindi, but it is badly formatted (For example, conjunct characters not being displayed properly, the matra vowel i appearing after, rather than before its consonant, etc.), this is a result of your browser or operating system's font renderer not being sophisticated enough to handle the complexities of the Devanagari script. Firefox seems to have this problem, and it may appear on older browsers as well. On Windows systems, using the latest version of Internet
Explorer typically fixes the problem. You may also want to try upgrading your Uniscribe DLL; unfortunately, this is not the easiest process, since the Uniscribe DLL cannot be redistributed. There is some information here that is useful if you have Office 2003.
