Myanmar/zwagyi/burmese language support in java me

Question

I been searching a lot about finding myanmar language support in java me. but didnt find anything. Even nokia phone also doesnt provide support to myanmar/burmese language in any of its phone. Can any one tell me whether java me sdk provide support for myanmar/burmese/zwagyi language or not.

here u can find that nokia phone doesnt support myanmar language. http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Asha-and-other-Nokia-Series-30/How-to-install-Burmese-language-to-my-6303i-classic/td-p/1851932

here is the link for the supported language localbe by JDK 8.0 . This list also doesnt contain myanmar language(burmese/zwagyi) localization.

Answer 1

I think most developers go with so-called bitmap fonts, when they need a certain language. Game-developers always use bitmap fonts to create a more interesting font with more colours and variation etc.

A bitmap font is essentially just a font that is drawn, and available as a PNG file, just like a sprite-sheet.

There are many tools available to help you create and use bitmap fonts. The only "drawback" (depending on your project) is that it requires you to use Canvas or GameCanvas rather than Form.

Here's one useful link out of many: http://mobilefonts.sourceforge.net/

You can easily find lots of other useful links if you google for more.
