Akshar Unicode font: common questions
Is the Akshar Unicode font free to use?
It is free to download here. The font file does not state a licence, so for commercial work such as a book cover, logo or paid app, check with its designer (Designed by Vasudevan V, for Prakruti Editor) first.
Is Akshar Unicode a Unicode font?
Yes. Akshar Unicode is a Unicode font: it covers 104 Hindi characters at their standard code points, so Hindi text typed anywhere - including our online editor - displays correctly in it.
What is Akshar Unicode called in Word and other apps?
After installing it, look for "Akshar Unicode" in the font menu of Word, LibreOffice, Photoshop or any other app that uses your computer's fonts. Web apps such as Google Docs cannot see fonts installed on your computer. That is the name stored inside the font file, and it can differ slightly from the name on this page.
How do I install Akshar Unicode?
Download the TrueType file from this page. On Windows, right-click it and choose "Install". On a Mac, double-click it and click "Install Font" in Font Book. Restart any app that was already open and Akshar Unicode will appear in its font list.
