Subject: Font layout features

As part of our port to windows CE we are using a Cairo configuration combined with freetype.  This is fairly similar to the Windows port but we are not using the native Windows GDI/cairo layer for fonts (instead we are using cairo-ft).  However, unlike the GTK port, we did not port Pango, and so are using Cairo font layout.  Can someone comment on what limitation we may have with Asian fonts/glyphs or other issues with this configuration?  We have ported the latest versions of freetype, fontconfig and cairo to CE.

Thanks,
Jason.
