Kavivanar is a unique handwriting font that supports the Tamil and Latin scripts.
|
|
It is somewhat bold, and slightly slanted, a typical Tamil handwriting style where an incline is popular.
|
|
The letterforms show a calligraphic pen stress that brings an aliveliness to the letters, and provides texture in body text settings.
|
|
It works well with both body text and display text because of the intriguing rhythm.

The slanted letterforms for Tamil are inspired from a manuscript by Kavivanar M. A. Azeez (1948-2002), a Tamil poet and educator who lived in the east coast of Sri Lanka.
