Having decades long experience with Latin typography, Peter Bilak (Typotheque) partnered with Satya Rajpurohit to create and market fine quality typefaces for the Indian market.
The Indian Type Foundry (ITF) attempts to give as much attention to Non-Latin as to Latin fonts. We started with Devanagari, Tamil and Latin, but other scripts, Bengali, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, and Telugu will be also covered. ITF does also research work to document and formalise regional languages of India which are on the brink of extinction, and will develop fonts for those endangered languages.
Next to building a library of retail typefaces, ITF will specialise also in creation of custom fonts.
