Hello,

I am trying to print some Tamil characters but does work though Hindi
characters are being printed. I have fonts for both the languages.

Plus I just want to know how java picks up the fonts, does it have its
own fonts. Below is the program I have written.

import javax.swing.*;
public class UnicodeTest extends JFrame
{
    private String str;
    private JTextField text=null;

    public UnicodeTest()
    {
        //str="\u0932\u0947\u0915\u0930"; // Hindi works
        str="\u0B85\u0B87\u0B88";   // Tamil does not work

        text=new JTextField(10);
        add(text);
        setSize(100,100);
        setVisible(true);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        UnicodeTest obj=new UnicodeTest();
        obj.print();
    }

    private void print()
    {
        text.setText(str);
    }
}

regards,
vijay.
