This is a great advantage to telugu and Linux, and the opensource in
general.

A Dassera Gift probably    ;-).

Cheers,

I have recently revised the Pothana2000 font and placed under GPL. The
main changes that were made are:
a) The font was scaled by 2.6 times (area wise) to make it compatible
with Times New Roman at the same pt size
b) The char contours were re-optimized as also  internal structurs,
redcing the font file size to 177kb from 259kb
c) Some bugs in rendering very complex combinations were fixed.

regards,
Desikachary
