Noto Serif Kannada font: common questions
Is the Noto Serif Kannada font free to use?
Yes. Noto Serif Kannada 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 Noto Serif Kannada a Unicode font?
Yes. Noto Serif Kannada is a Unicode font: it covers 91 Kannada characters at their standard code points, so Kannada text typed anywhere - including our online editor - displays correctly in it.
What is Noto Serif Kannada called in Word and other apps?
After installing it, look for "Noto Serif Kannada" 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.
