Hey list,
does anybody know an useable font for sanskrit writings another then sanskrit2003.ttf? It is preferred to have the same range (with ligatures etc.) as the sanskrit2003.ttf.
Best regards,

It is hard to imagine that there is only one usable font for the devanagari script. Have you looked at http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Devanagari.html for example? Ligatures are an essential feature of devanagari, so I expect there is no font which doesn't support ligatures.
I'd be interested to see whether you manage to successfully use devanagari with context. (I vaguely remember a mailing list posting that devanagari is not supported...?)
Specs .. examples ... etc needed .. some day I'll have a go at it (need time and a good excuse). ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
