From: http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/views/View_LohitTamil.html :

*Lohit Tamil* (lohit_ta.ttf from ttf-indic-fonts_0.4.7.tar.gz)
> *Source*: Free download<http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/ttf-indic-fonts/>from Ubuntu.
> *Stats*: Version 1.00 has 287 glyphs and no kerning pairs
> *Support*: Tamil
> *OpenType Layout Tables*: Tamil NzI2MTY5<https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTIzNzI2MTY5>

the lack of kerning pairs will adversely affect the output.  Try
Tamu_kalyani or _kadambri or some other kerned Tamil font.
