    I think there is some confusion here. It looks like Ngwe Tun is saying
    that the Myanmar text on ayarunicodegroup.org is encoded in violation of
    the correct Unicode *ordering conventions* for the script, not that the
    encoding is an ASCII hack or something else other than Unicode (which is
    what "non-Unicode font" and "migrate to Unicode Standards" usually
    imply).

    I copied the text from Ayar's home page into BabelPad, a desktop app
    which uses Uniscribe and has no access to any of Ayar's proprietary
    fonts (using Code2000 instead), and didn't see any private-use
    characters. But since I don't read Myanmar, it's entirely possible that
    the text as encoded is complete garbage and needs to be reordered as
    Ngwe Tun says.
