Latha font is working good, but not working in texmaker window, it is only working in texworks window.
In texmaker window when i type tamil, only square box is displaying, letters not displaying.
I download the other tamil fonts but when i open the fonts file to install, it is coming only in english. I don't why it is coming like that. So I am not able to install other tamil fonts.
