Thank you for the information.
I do not stand in NDA with Apple and the information I wrote about
possible Georgian typeface support on upcoming OS X release was based
on the information speculating among Georgian users.
I am sorry to hear this may not be true.
I do hope OS X will improve Georgian language support though in terms
of adding Georgian keyboard layouts and typeface, as OS X is the only
major operating system not supporting Georgian.

This is strange. Have you tried changing the font of the final
document to Sylfaen? I do think the right hand space you mention is
due to the spacing issues with Arial Unicode MS typeface and can be
resolved in the text is applied proper Georgian unicode typeface like
Sylfaen or BPG Glaho.

I am afraid I was not able to receive the attachment, either because
the mailing list software strips attachments, or due to my mail
client. Please kindly send it directly to my mail address and I will
take a look at it.
