[Indlinux-telugu] New versions of Pothana2000 and Vemana fonts are now available

[Krishna D. <kri...@ne...>]

Hello,
New versions of Pothana2000 and Vemana fonts including the 14 new characters
recently accepted by Unicode Consortium are now available at my website
http://www.kavya-nandanam.com. In addition to including these new chars, the
current version of Pothana2000 also eliminates a bug the existed in the
previous version and also contains finely tuned contours for 35% of the
glyphs included in the font. You can download the proposal for new chars
submitted to Unicode Consortium following the link:
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc2/wg2/docs/n3116.pdf. Actually 6 of the newly
accepted chars were already present in those fonts, but now they are
assigned 'official' code points within the Telugu block. The remaining 8 are
for accomodating the older writing style for numerical fractions in Telugu,
which are almost never used at present.
