Comment 1 Pravin Satpute 2009-10-23 11:01:47 UTC
it is always good to have a more characters in font, so in text they can match with particular style of font etc and no need to import characters from other font.

There is no harm in keeping more characters in font

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle.
Changing version to '12'.

Comment 3 Parag Nemade 2009-12-21 07:06:02 UTC
Though I still think as we have language specific Lohit fonts now, we should only keep character set of that language in font.

For now deferring this for future development.
