we have very few Tamil fonts which are really free, even those that are
available have bugs.
I'm in process of creating new Tamil fonts over the next few months. I
would like to seek the co-operation of people who are good at computer
aided drawing, who can draw and give us Tamil letters under a sharable
license, kindly mail me back if you are one such person.
I do not think this is the way to do it. You need an artist to create a font
in the good old traditional way. Then you need to scan them in and digitalise
them. If the artist is good, he will have to be paid. Funds can be raised for
that. If he is paid, he hands over the copyright so then the fonts can be
released under a free license. Find a good artist - we will find the funds.
