How do you fix Urdu display in firefox and chrome on linux? The text is broken. I've installed all the popular Urdu fonts (Alvi Nastaleeq, Nafees etc). I've tried changing the default encoding to Unicode. I can't change the browser fonts to urdu because then the English text appears weird. I just want to read the Urdu tweet or facebook status in proper Alvi Nastaleeq and the english text to remain in whatever font the webpage prefers.
