Having trouble displaying thai characters in Silverlight 3

Hi I am writing a small utility too using silverlight 3 and WCF for our localization team to check and correct the translations stored in .NET resource files (*.resx).

The tool displays all the text from selected resource file in a grid and allows the user to edit it if required. I have got it working for almost all langauges (Korean, chinese, turky etc) except fo开发者_Go百科r Thai.

Thai is having some problem rendering in the silverlight grid (or any other control in silverlight). It shows only sqauare characters which is of no use. I dont know why Thai is treated specially by silverlight. Let me know if anyone has found a solution to work around this limitation?

Thanks Shreedhar

I'm assuming you're using unicode of some sort for this.

You need to use a font which includes Thai characters (I believe Arial Unicode MS does, for example). The square characters you're seeing are probably subsitute characters.
