      How can we treat non-Unicode Asian Font (Nepali, Hindi)? Every single word has fall apart. It is very irritating to using ‘No Break’ option, because there is many pages. How can we handle Asian fonts?

      It is very hard to know, Rajesh. One expert, Diane Burns (who did the multi-lingual publishing title at lynda.com… I highly recommend this!) said: “at the very least, need to apply the World-Ready composer. And some fonts just don’t do well in ID. For example, some of the SE Asian fonts that Apple installs in the system use an Apple technology (AAT) that conflicts with InDesign’s composition engine, so you can’t use them with the WR composer and if I remember correctly, maybe not in InDesign at all.”
