--- Comment #4 from Buovjaga <todventtu@suomi24.fi> ---
(In reply to Toby Anderson from comment #3)
tools -> Options... -> Language settings -> languages
check the checkbox for complex text layout (CTL)
Open the Styles and Formatting dialog and modify the new style you made.
Open the font tab.
Now there are two font settings in the style - one that applies when the
style is on western text, and one that applies when it is on CTL text. The
second one is set to Lohit Devenagari.

So the problem is not that it's completely impossible to use styles to set
the font of CTL text, but merely that it is completely unfeasible that any
normal user would be able to work out how to do that.

When that CTL checkbox in the options dialog is left unchecked then the
styles only let you see and edit the font that is applied to western text,
but they apply a different font to non-western text and the place that this
is to be modified is completely hidden from view. I am suggesting that this
is a bug.

I suppose the expected behaviour would be that when that CTL checkbox is not
checked then all CTL text in a document should be treated as western for the
purposes of applying styles.

Let's ask UX team's opinion
