TruthTaco:
I also have similar issues with the text viewer, using a build from a few days ago on my fuze and it wont displaying - correctly. I also tested it on a simulator for another player thats supported, e200 and it was the same problem. Also i think its having trouble displaying ' too.

amr:
Which language? and what is the specific displaying problem?

Does it relate to special characters too?

P.S.
I'm trying investigating the firmware code but I'd have to be way more patient ! I had no experience in such thing.

English, its just the dash - and the '

instead of displaying said characters it just shows a accented A and two weird looking boxes.

As far as I've known till now, the libraries I set my hopes on (fribidi, pango) or their core lib (HarfBuzz) are based on OpenType Layout, while rockbox uses a proprietary font format... which means there won't be a direct plug and play of the opentype lib into rockbox..., but maybe we can make use of the code implementing the algorithm to get some ideas for improving the one of rockbox...
