Web Fonts
தொகுThis template makes use of the WebFonts extension installed on this project. This extension allows for the proper display of languages where the standard font is either unavailable or of insufficient quality.
The language parameter will determine which font is used. In some cases, multiple fonts are available; the preferred font can be selected with the font parameter. If the font parameter is not used, the default font for that language will be selected.
