[INDOLOGY] Fonts

[Dominik Wujastyk]

There are lots of great, richly-populated Unicode fonts around nowadays,
and one is spoiled for choice.  I like Libertinus
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertinus> Sans and Serif (whose characters
are width-for-with identical with Times New Roman) for workaday
applications, and TeX Gyre Pagella (and the whole Gyre family) for a bit
more sophistication.  Pagella is used for the HSSA journal
<http://hssa-journal.org>.  But I think a special shout-out is deserved for
Junicode <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junicode>, which is actively
maintained and goes from strength to strength.  It's squarely aimed at
medievalists, but it handles almost all our needs too, and looks great.  I
like the historical sensitivity that's gone into its design.  Gandhari is
good too, of course.

Best,
Dominik
