View Information in Indic (Marathi) Fonts

For almost all the information, this website uses standard Unicode encoding, which is standard across all modern operating systems. Here is how you can enable Unicode Indic support on your computer, if it is not already installed.

Windows XP and Server 2003

Viewing Indic text

  1. Go to Start > Control Panel.
  2. If you are in "Category View" select the icon that says "Date, Time, Language and Regional Options" and then select "Regional and Language Options".
  3. If you are in Classic View select the icon that says "Regional and Language Options".
  4. Select the "Languages" tab and make sure you select the option saying "Install files for complex script and right-to-left languages (including Thai)". A confirmation message should now appear - press "OK" on this confirmation message.
  5. Allow the OS to install necessary files from the Windows XP CD and then reboot if prompted.
