Non-English text support for TTF?

Hello,

Will LÖVE support drawing non-English string with True Type Fonts? Or does it already support that? I've tried loading a Thai font. It loaded fine, but when I tried to draw a string in my native language ( Thai ) , it shows latin characters instead. English text can be drawn without any problems though. Is there any way to overcome this problem except the bitmap font?

Thank you in advance :)

There have been earlier questions about the same, but I believe there was no other way than using bitmaps. (If I'm wrong, please correct me.)

Sorry, no Unicode yet. It's planned, but it will require quite a bit of work, so don't expect it in very near future.
