Tamil Font Testing Page is a tool to test Tamil fonts which are in development. Simply 'Drag and Drop' the work in progress, font into a browser to see how it displayed in a browser.
Operation is simple:
- First, you must accept the request from the browser.
- Then drag the font you want to try to the upper area of the Testing Page
- Add more fonts and you'll see their file names and file sizes as buttons
Below the drop area you see some buttons to select different layouts:
- Headlines: Displays examples: 72, 60, 48, 36 and 30 to 12.
- Text: Displays text blocks, from 20 to 10.
- Adhesion: Shows examples using only 'adhesion' text. Intended for the early stages on a typeface design.
- Words: Displays examples of words in Sentence Case at 60.
- Layout: Displays examples of Headline, Subhead and Body text.
- Kern: Displays examples of combinations of letters and miscellaneous signs.
- Latin: Diacritics for 103 Latin languages, pangrams and text samples.
- Hinting: Basic Char-set at different sizes to check for hinting problems
- World Scripts: Examples in arabic, armenian, greek, hebrew and +10 Non-Latin languages
Notes:
- Requires Firefox 3.6+/Chrome 13+
- 100% Javascript
- 100% safe: Your fonts are only stored in your own browser (using
localStorage
) and nothing gets uploaded to any server
