Malayalam font in TTF format

    Meera is a TrueType font for the Malayalam language.
    This is a comprehensive Malayalam font with 1000+ glyphs for all
    common Malayalam ligatures.

    It has carefully designed ascent, descent metrics optimized for
    Malayalam script's vertically stacked conjuncts.  Meera is an even
    stroke typeface for better screen rendering, with individually
    designed glyphs for complex conjuncts rather than using component
    glyphs.

    Meera is a san-serif counter part of Rachana font with all traditional
    characters.  It is also meant for body text like Rachana, preferably
    for a pamphlet or single page designs.  Usage of Meera can be thought
    of similar to Helvetica typeface and its variations like Arial.  Meera
    Roman glyphs are visually similar to Arial but its orthography
    strictly follows Meera Malayalam glyphs. Basic curves and straight
    lines are taken from Malayalam ‘റ’ and ‘വ’ characters. This is why
    Meera Roman glyphs differ from Helvetica but holds san-serif
    characteristics and smoothly sit with its Malayalam glyphs.

    Released in 2007, Meera is the default Malayalam font for many
    GNU/Linux distros for Malayalam script.  The font is widely used in
    web as the primary choice for Malayalam screen font.  The font is
    available only in regular style.
