Puchamthe font: common questions

Is the Puchamthe font free to use?

Puchamthe was published by the Government of Karnataka through its Kannada Siri project for public use. The font file points to that project for its licence terms, so check them before commercial use.

Is Puchamthe a Unicode font?

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.
