About these Kannada fonts

These 22 typefaces cover Kannada script, the writing system used for Kannada across Karnataka and neighbouring districts of Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. The collection ranges from plain text faces meant for long documents to display faces built for headlines, posters and titles.

Use the preview box above to type your own words and compare every font at once, and the size slider to check that a font still reads well at the size you actually need. Each entry shows its file size before you download.

You do not need any of these fonts to write Kannada online. The Kannada typing editor produces standard Unicode text that every modern device can already show. Install a font when you want a particular look in Word, Canva, Photoshop or a video title.

Kannada fonts: common questions

How do I install a Kannada font on Windows?

Download the font file from this page, right-click it and choose "Install" (or "Install for all users" if you want every account on the computer to have it). Restart the app you want to use it in - Word, Photoshop or whatever it is - and the font will appear in its font list.

How do I install a Kannada font on a Mac?

Download the file, double-click it to open Font Book, then click "Install Font". The font becomes available in every Mac app straight away, though apps that were already open may need to be restarted.

Are these Kannada fonts free to use?

Yes, every font listed here is free to download and use. Individual fonts carry their own licences from their original authors, so check the licence that comes with a font before using it in a commercial product such as a book cover or a paid app.

Which Kannada font should I pick?

For documents and anything long, pick a Unicode font with clear, evenly weighted letterforms - it will stay readable at small sizes. Decorative and display fonts look better in headings, posters and logos. Use the preview box at the top of this page to type your own text and compare fonts side by side before downloading.

Do I need these fonts to type in Kannada?

No. The online Kannada editor works without installing anything, because it produces standard Unicode text that your device can already display. Download these fonts only when you want a specific look in a document, design or video.
