Hi,
Last year, on 1st November, we released updated Aksharyogini font. This was a revised and updated font from the earlier font family release of Aksharyogini. Moreover, it was released under Open Font License.
Today, on the ninth death anniversary of Yogini Joglekar while remembering her, we wish to thank all the users for their love and support. The total download count from the official release website http://aksharyogini.sudhanwa.com has already crossed 16000 mark.
Please let us know about any websites who are using/referring/cross-linking or just simply mentioning the fonts. (eg. http://evimarsh.vmou.ac.in/hi) We encourage you to freely use/share/distribute the same on your websites.
Thanks again, -Sudhanwa Jogalekar

Dear friends,
You may be aware that we (my family) have released a font family earlier. Here is some background if you are not aware of it.
On the first death Anniversary of Yogini Joglekar(my aunt), our family released AksharYogini (Normal) Font on 1st Nov. 2006. This font is primarily for Marathi language but can also be used for Hindi (for any language using Devanagari). It also has English support. Later on, on the occasion of Gudhipadwa (Chaitra Shuddha 1, 1931; that is 27th March 2009) , we released the additional fonts to complete the "AksharYogini font family". This font family was/is made available on the site http://aksharyogini.sudhanwa.com for free usage/distribution/sharing.
Today, on the occasion of Eighth Death Anniversary of Yogini Joglekar, we are now releasing an updated "AksharYogini font". This font is also available on the same website http://aksharyogini.sudhanwa.com
This is an updated font and has support for the new (MS Windows) operating systems where the internal mechanism for font rendering is changed. Also, it has additional characters for the current Unicode standard and the Rupee Sign is also included.
Most important is the licensing. The new release is under the Open Font License. As such, all Linux distributions will be able to freely use it in their packaging.
Please feel free to use, share, distribute the new font. You can download it from http://aksharyogini.sudhanwa.com .
Give us feedback on my email id or the official id for the font " aksharyogini at sudhanwa.com " You can also comment on the guestbook on the website. Do share this news and also the font.
Wishing you a Very Happy Diwali !!
Thanks and regards -Sudhanwa
