I am using Bloom for a book using a Nastaliq script, and it generally does render the script correctly (where even Adobe products often fail!). However, I am finding that some of the characters at the right (and sometimes top) have portions cut off by the edge of the textbox, since they tend to “flourish” beyond the straight line. The only solution I know of for now is to add spaces manually at line breaks, which of course is not ideal. However, I don’t know of any way to allow the character to print beyond the border of the text box. Adding a very narrow (and empty) textbox at the right margin does not seem to fix it either - my conclusion is that it is the textbox cutting it off, not just the margin. Is putting multiple manual spaces at line breaks (and thus having to readjust those multiple spaces any time an edit changes line breaks) the only way around this issue in Bloom for now? Or is there a solution I am missing? I’ve seen other posts here about Nastaliq, so I wonder if other users have a way to work with this that is better than manual tweaks?
