XenoType Technologies is the only company to offer sophisticated support for Unicode Kannada text on a Macintosh. If you’re planning on creating Unicode-based web pages, emails or any other type of document, you’ll need the Kannada Language Kit.

As scripts go, the proper display of Kannada is fairly complex requiring all sorts of conjuncts, ligatures and graphic transposition (when certain characters are moved in front of or behind other characters contextually), but our Kannada fonts take care of all this for you. We also provide a standard ISCII keyboard driver for native typists as well as our own pseudo-phonetic driver designed with English speakers in mind.

With an appropriate application, you can create just about any Unicode-based document — check out the Sample Files link for a sample html/pdf document.

We’re working on some additional fonts to complement the Kannada Language Kit which should be available before the end of July. These fonts will be available individually at additional cost or as part of a complete package.
