About:
Noto Sans Devanagari is a modern, open-source typeface meticulously designed by Google to ensure visual harmony across all languages. It provides comprehensive coverage for the Devanagari script, used for writing Hindi, Sanskrit, Marathi, and other languages. The font is optimized for use in user interfaces and digital text, preventing rendering issues with 'tofu' (missing character) boxes.
Key Features:
  • Comprehensive Unicode coverage for the Devanagari script
  • Designed for high legibility in UI and text environments
  • Part of the global Noto font family aiming to support all languages
  • Open-source and freely available
Use Cases:
  • Displaying content in Hindi, Sanskrit, or Nepali on macOS
  • Ensuring consistent typography in multilingual applications
  • Desktop publishing for documents using Devanagari script
Alternatives:
  • Sanskrit 2003 – A popular legacy font, but lacks the modern design and extensive character set of Noto.
  • Lohit Devanagari – An open-source alternative from Red Hat, often used as a default on Linux systems.
