# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import pygame, sys


pygame.font.init()

screen = pygame.display.set_mode((640,480))

unistring = u"හගෝ ශානික "

fnt = pygame.font.Font("kaputaunicode.ttf",40)

while True:
screen.blit(fnt.render(unistring,True,(255,255,255)),(0,0))

pygame.display.flip()
for key in pygame.event.get():
if key.type == pygame.QUIT:
pygame.quit()
sys.exit()

this code works but it prints the the second character after the fourth.
Any ideas why it's doing that?

Hi Diliup,

I'm using unicode without problem in Polish, German and French. Usually
it's the font you are using is the problem. I would check those font you
selected have correct mappings for characters you want to use.

Try to load this font into your system and check in eg. OpenOffice or Gimp
does programs render those characters. If they don't then 100% your font
has not those characters mapped.

Cheers
Bart

Dear Bart,

Thank you for your response. I realized that the problem is actually in the
font rendering in pygame cause of the way our language uses its symbols. I
decided to convert all unicode into standard font mapping and it has worked
very well.
