Grantha editor

Post by kmrasika »

I am looking for a editor application that can be used to typeset Grantha with Vedic accents. I know only one such, the Hayagreeva editor:http://sourceforge.net/projects/hayagreevaindic/
However, I can't seem to get the accents to denote the intonation.

It is very difficult to find vedic fonts, it is very difficult to find grantha fonts. Finding grantha for vedic is like sighting a golden moon.

Probably we should work on it, i.e those of us who are in touch with unicode and font mappings etc.

Look at
http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/contact.php
They are the best bet for developing the fonts with accents.
I have seen vedic texts with accents as PDF files. So it must be available.
