Is the Baloo Tamma font free to use?
Yes. Baloo Tamma is released under the SIL Open Font License, which lets you use it free of charge in personal and commercial work - documents, print, logos, websites and apps. The only thing you may not do is sell the font file on its own.
Is Baloo Tamma a Unicode font?
Yes. Baloo Tamma is a Unicode font: it covers 89 Kannada characters at their standard code points, so Kannada text typed anywhere - including our online editor - displays correctly in it.
What is Baloo Tamma called in Word and other apps?
After installing it, look for "Baloo Tamma" 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.
