  • I'm a little unclear on the problem here. Are those characters different from what you're expecting? It's very hard to tell for those of us not familiar with this script. Do you have a sample of what those characters should look like, in that font?

  • I'm not very familiar with multibyte characters, but it seems like some of those characters like ર્થ are combination of characters? When I was using my arrow key to move through, it took two presses to pass this character. If I put a space in the middle, it separates into two characters, the same as show in the image: ર્ થ

Looks like this is not possible with Unicode, and has been a problem for a long time. From a PHP developer on a 10 year old bug:




Thanks, now I got it. The problem isn't particularly related to
Bengali, but rather to combining characters in general, which are
not supported by imagettftext().




I attempted this with the Imagick extension, but had the same output.



A possible workaround is to find a font that uses another encoding such as ISCII, and then convert the text to that encoding using mb_convert_encoding() or similar function.



Or perhaps have the image generated by a command-line tool run with exec().
