Hi,

I wanted to create my own font with bi langual. That implies, I want to mix both Tamil and Arabic to a single font with limited characters. I wanted to create Capital / Simple letters as well. Not like in English, but as in Arabic. Individually 1 letter and combined with other letters (1 or more forms). Therefore, I would like to know whether from Microsoft Typography, Can I achieve this? Meanwhile, how about your technical support. By the way, I would like to know about the purchasing option as well. If you need any clarifications I can add more details.

Thank,
Salik
