Chrome in Ubuntu is not rendering Urdu fonts properly. It is showing gibberish characters I'm not able to read. The problem is especially bad on Facebook.
I copied some Urdu fonts under ~/.fonts
and under /usr/share/fonts/
and updated the cache and then restarted Chrome but even that didn't work.
This is how it is appearing on my system
I have installed MSCore fonts and many other fonts but it's still not working.
