How do you change the default Malayalam font in Windows from Kartika to Rachana? Also, I can't get Rachana to work in MS Word 2003. In the Fonts dialog, there is no option to select Rachana as the Complex Scripts font.

I had the same problem on my laptop (lcd screen). Uninstalling the rachana_w01 opentype font (installed from rachana_w01.otf), and installing the truetype font
from rachana_w01.ttf seems to fix the problem. I had cleartype enabled by the way. I think it interfered with the otf format.

Right now, I'm grappling with the same problem. I installed Anjali, for varamozhi. Then I wanted to change my MS Word Malayalam default font to an old lipi font. I downloaded Rachana and uninstalled Kartika. But, now, Anjali seems to have become the default Malayalam font. If you could find any solution, do inform me. renuramanath@hotmail.com, renuramanath@yahoo.co.in
