Description jamil 2006-11-19 19:34:40 UTC 
OpenOffice.org Calc can not show Bengali digits. If you enter Bengali digits, it
simply switch/show English digit symbols. Like putting BENGALI DIGIT ZERO
[U+09E6] will show up English Digit Zero.

Unicode value for Bengali digits are listed below:
U+09E6  BENGALI DIGIT ZERO
U+09E7 	BENGALI DIGIT ONE
U+09E8 	BENGALI DIGIT TWO
U+09E9 	BENGALI DIGIT THREE
U+09EA 	BENGALI DIGIT FOUR
U+09EB 	BENGALI DIGIT FIVE
U+09EC 	BENGALI DIGIT SIX
U+09ED 	BENGALI DIGIT SEVEN
U+09EE 	BENGALI DIGIT EIGHT
U+09EF 	BENGALI DIGIT NINE

pl->hdu: please have a look
Comment 2 hdu@apache.org 2007-05-15 14:55:21 UTC 
@nn: please use OutputDevice::SetDigitlanguage() to enable language specific digit display
Comment 3 niklas.nebel 2007-05-15 19:03:37 UTC 
hdu: Calc calls SetDigitLanguage with LANGUAGE_SYSTEM if "System" numerals are
configured. This used to work before the VCL fix for issue 41672. At that time,
OutputDevice::SetDigitLanguage used GetSystemLanguage. Writer and EditEngine now
use Application::GetSettings().GetLanguage(). Which is right?

itsjamil: You can select Bengali digits in a number format by using a format
like "[NatNum1]0" with Bengali language. The type of digits that you use to
input a number doesn't have any effect.
