+Bharathi Pusthakaalayam in collaboration with Chalkpiece foundation
+released the Bharathi Azhagu Tamil Unicode fonts totaling 808
+fonts. This is my own personal selection of 77 fonts for
+Slackware linux. The fonts are licensed under CC-BY-SA-4.0
+
+I have classified the fonts under these catagories
+doc,reading,condensed and handwritten. By default only
+the fonts under doc directory containing 25 fonts will be
+installed.These fonts are for writing documents and looks good
+especially typeset using lualatex as compared to using
+libreoffice.
+
+The fonts in reading dir are for viewing webpages it contains
+a total of 38 fonts.To install the fonts in reading dir
+run the slackbuild as
+
+READING=YES ./fonts-tamil-bharathi.SlackBuild
+
+The fonts in condensed folder are either monospace or typewritter
+style like fonts and are very condensed containing a total of 7
+fonts. To install these fonts run the slackbuild as
+
+CONDENSED=YES ./fonts-tamil-bharathi.SlackBuild
+
+The fonts in handwritten folder are in handwritten style containing
+a total of 7 fonts. To install these fonts run the slackbuild as
+
+HANDWRITTEN=YES ./fonts-tamil-bharathi.SlackBuild
+
+If you use these fonts for viewing webpages then make
+sure the font size is atleast 20 otherwise it would be
+too small to read.
