So ok, let me gather the data. I know the author of Chandas, he is from Minsk. We have discussed the font for a while. It was made for the needs of vyakarana, but I don think it is the best looking one. http://groups.google.ru/group/Nagari Yes, the “a” and “la” are the ones.

I'm not a technical person; I just need to know which fonts we should have our Hindi translators use so that we can easily post the texts on our website. Thanks!!
