Nepali fonts such as Preeti, Kantipur, Rukmini etc.
were used in to type Nepali documents before
Nepali Unicode was developed.
These fonts use Devanagari letters as pictorial
representations of letters, they still use the ASCII
encoding for mapping the letters as far as storage of
letters in these fonts.
During the data and documents to be transformed
from one computer to the other, both computer
required same fonts installed.
