1. Can you tell me
the name of the font Nilacharal uses for its
web pages?
Nilacharal is using 'TheneeUni' Unicode font for
web pages and ‘TSC_Avarangal’ for archived index
pages. Old pages are in TSc avarangal &
Latha fonts.
2. Do I need to
install any of the fonts to view Nilacharal?
No. Since we are using dynamic fonts they
will be automatically downloaded to enable
you to view the fonts clearly while browsing
through our website.
3. What browsers do
I need to view Unicode Tamil WebPages?

running Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me,
