Description-en: smart font for languages using Devanagari script
These fonts are named after the majestic Annapurna mountain range of Nepal.
The goal is to provide a Unicode-based font family with support for the many
diverse languages that use Devanagari script to produce readable, high-quality
publications. The design is intended to be highly readable, reasonably
compact, and visually attractive.
.
Annapurna SIL has a calligraphic design that reflects the stroke contrast of
writing the characters with a broad nib used for Devanagari.
.
Annapurna SIL is a TrueType font with "smart font" capabilities added using
OpenType and Graphite font technologies. This means that complex typographic
issues such as the placement of combining marks or the formation of ligatures
are handled by the font, provided you are running an application that provides
an adequate level of support for one of these smart font technologies.
.
This package includes dedicated formats and templates for using Annapurna SIL
as a web font.
