OK, so the fact that exactly the same behaviour (i.e. with Arial
Unicode MS selected only Oriya digits are displayed) is seen in
Notepad with Uniscribe version 1.409.2600.1106 and later (but not with
Uniscribe version 1.405.2416.1 or earlier) is a bug in Notepad ?! What
you seem to be saying is that every single MS product that relies on
Uniscribe for complex script rendering should have special code
written in to overcome the deficiencies of certain versions of
Uniscribe, even when the deficiencies did not exist when the code was
written. Wow!
