    According to MSDN Script and Font Support in Windows, Windows 8.1 Preview supports 6 new scripts including my native Javanese script.

    Would anybody be so kind to check their Windows 8.1 installatation to find out wether "Javanese Text" font exist in the Fonts folder. If it exist please send me this font because I want to test it. I can't download Windows 8.1 myself because internet connection here is not so fast and limited.

    Thanks.

    Thank you very much, Tito. I forgot something. Since Javanese script is a complex script, it need Uniscribe (usp10.dll) to work properly. Could you please send me "usp10.dll" file from Windows 8.1.

    It's currently being discussed at Facebook's Javanese script forum. There's an indication that the Javanese font used in Windows 8.1 is a copyright infringement.

    Below is the picture of the font.
