Problem with Farsi ( Persian ) Language

mindlab

I am developing a printer using QT4.3.3 on Linux 2.6.20. There is no real keyboard ( I use touch panel ) and only virtue keyboard
cab ne used. No QT desktop system.

I want to add Farsi language for the printer. Does QT4.3.3 supports Farsi ( Persian ) language.

If not, I need an input method for the embedded QT. Is such input method program available ? Does anyone who know where to find the program ?

Please help. Thanks

Does qt linguist works to embedded deploy?

I am not sure ? I had asked many people they heard that QT supports Farsi but not for my case. I hope it is not.

Due to the unicode that Qt uses internally, almost every language can be supported (as long as the fonts you use can display the characters, of course). Qt Linguist is unicode based too, so it should support Farsi as well. The QLocale has - according to the docs - some support for Persian, too.

I don't know of any input method of Qt itself. As far as I know, this is subject to the underlying operating system or windowing system (X11, or such). It should be not too hard to make you own virtual keyboard, if that's needed.
