Vedic recitation, with accent marks

Grantha has carried Sanskrit and Dravidian religious writing since the 7th century CE, and it is a relative of Tamil, which is why some Tamil support turns up in this font too. It is written left to right and needs software with complex text shaping.

The Monotype design team gave it a modulated, serif treatment. What makes the font more than a basic cover is support for the Unicode Vedic Extensions block, and an unusually long list of stylistic sets, 10 of them, for the variant forms a printed edition may want to show. 1 Regular weight, with Latin for footnotes and transliteration.
