Change font for source and target languages

[mondele]

It should be possible to change the display (and editing) font for source and target language panes.

Could you explain your use-case a bit more as to why this would be helpful in your context?

[mondele]

Yes - we're doing translation in a language from one of your neighboring countries. The typical Arabic font rendering (for example, Noto) doesn't look quite right to the native speakers, and they have trouble reading it. Installation of a different font resolves that problem, but Autographa doesn't support it.

Thanks for that. We will put this on the list. To give you some more context, the team is planning on integrating Graphite font rendering engine that would allow such text to show-up properly. This is dependent on an external team doing this for us and will keep you posted on the progress. Ideally, this should solve your problem, since it is not just an issue of the font selector not being there.

I agree that graphite support will support more fonts, but right now there is just no option to select the display font (although the font size adjustment is beautifully intuitive).
