It took me a while to figure out your problem, please modify your Description and Title to say something like 'Arabic text shadows have wrong offset'.

It's a road without end if we're going to make specialized renders for each and every language that doesn't work with stand-alone glyphs.

The issue I believe is being reported is that the characters are separated when Arabic is displayed with essentially zero kerning (see the examples at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_language#Examples )

It's worth bearing in mind that Arabic script is the second most popular script after Latin, so this isn't necessarily a "single language" issue.

Can you close this report and open this one MC-13194

Thanks

Dinnerbone has told two people to post this on the tracker. I'm not sure he's aware of the resolution; it's possible he intends to fix it even if Grum does not.

We're considering adding some metadata so you guys can play with that to get the 'right kerning' - not super high on the things to do list though 🙂 (needs some extra changes as well).

There Are Thousands Of Arabic Players Play Minecraft Daily And Upload It To Youtube , So I Think It's A Must To Fix The Arabic Language For Us , We Paid For The Game And We Supported It , So Mojang Must Support The Arabic Language And Fix It , At The End Thanks For Everything And I Hope You Fix It As Soon As Possible

Regards , Arabic Player 😃

As this issue is currently resolved as "Won't Fix", which prevents users from voting on it, I suggest that anyone that cares about it vote on MC-10426, which is the issue for the custom kerning Grum mentioned as a solution for this issue.

So if we voted on MC-10426 and maked a lot of people vote mojang gonna fix the arabic language???

This should be marked as resolved, since Arabic is already fixed long long time ago, in 13w36a it is I think, if that's the first Minecraft 1.7 snapshot.
