+Devanagari, Latin, and Cyrillic scripts.  It is available in two
+weights--regular and bold.  The font is designed with over 1600 Devanagari
+glyphs, including support for over 1100 conjunct consonants, as well as vedic
+accents.  The Latin component of the font not only supports a wide range of
+characters required for Roman transliteration of Sanskrit, but also provides
+a subset of regularly used mathematical symbols for scholars working with
+scientific and technical documents.")
