[OLPC India] Marathi Font help + Glyph alignment feedback

[Sayamindu Dasgupta]

Hi,
I just checked, and Deja Vu Sans (at least in my Ubuntu Gutsy system)
does not have any of the Indic glyphs in it.
So some kind of weird font substitution is happening.

fc-match :lang=mr

should provide which font is actually being used.

Regards,
Sayamindu
