marathi font?






POSTED BY:

when it comes to typing in marathi using lipikaar, how many marathi fonts are available?


Fonts are not significant when we are on the Internet or using any 'document sharing' method, for the very reason that the other party needs to have that font installed while viewing the content.

Thats why Lipikaar is based on the Unicode standard, which eliminates the compulsion that the font should be pre-installed. Fonts & typefaces do make sense when it comes to printing and publishing.

There are some fonts for Marathi Unicode available online, which can be downloaded from their respective sites:

Arial Unicode MS (Comes bundled with MS Office): http://www.ascendercorp.com/font/arial-unicode/

Code 2000: http://www.code2000.net/

FreeSerif: http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freefont/

GNU Unifont: http://www.lgm.cl/trabajos/unifont/index.en.html

TITUS Cyberbit Basic: http://titus.fkidg1.uni-frankfurt.de/unicode/tituut.asp

Please keep this forum topic alive with any additional Unicode-based fonts you would like to share.


A cursive font with distinct typeface and clear curves can be downloaded from the following location.
