    Glad you found this useful. The TextBlock element does not support East Asian, BIDI or Complex script languages in version 1.0. For more info, see the "Globalization and Localization" section in the Silverlight FAQ: http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/faq.aspx Also, see the "Silverlight and Unicode" forum thread: http://silverlight.net/forums/p/545/879.aspx#879 Regards, Lorin

BTW: Create an word doc with east asian text and print to xps. If you rename the xps to .zip and open it, you can extract the odttf files and reference them in your downloader object. Why is this not documented yet? Is it not supported?
