Thai font

Post by jhunts5 »

For all of the Thai font users out there (yeah, all three of us?), I have seen all the posts about problems with cutting and pasting and figured that one out. But when you use Thai fonts (even the dreaded Tahoma) have you noticed how tone markers and vowels often cover part of one of the letters? I have been having to actually do these separately and move them above the appropriate letter. This is definitely a tedious process. Would love to see this one day be corrected! If someone has figured out which font does not have this problem, please let me know. (I've tried Angsana, Browalia and even Adobe Thai).

Instead of going to that amount of trouble could I suggest that you make your titles in Paint Shop or whatever image manipulation software you may have (or even MS 'Paint)' and export them as bmp or png and insert that into the timeline of VideoStudio.

If you want your titles over your video then either export as transparent png and put in in an overlay - or make your title over a blue or green background and use Chroma key to make in transparent.

Thank you, BrianCee, I believe that would work as a temporary fix at least. I saw another post that had a similar suggestion. But it also adds a few extra steps to a task that should be quite easy. For a five minute video, that can end up being a lot of jpegs! I'm just not sure why they won't come out looking like any other document when put on video? Thanks again!
