ABOUT

ELCOT: Electronics Corporation of Tamil Nadu Limited

ELCOT is a A Government of Tamilnadu undertaking. The Governmaent bought fonts and font software from Vanavil Tamil Font at an exorbitant cost (in their own words), but standardization and cost forced them to start producing their own high quality free fonts for both Windows and Linux: ELCOT bought the TAM/TAB standardized Tamil fonts from Lastech Systems Private Limited, and secured full rights. Thus, ELCOT released these TAM/TAB fonts and some modified or converted derived fonts in 2007: ELCOT-ANSI, ELCOT-Bilingual, ELCOT-Kanchi, ELCOT-Kovai, ELCOT-Madurai, ELCOT-Salem, ELCOT-Thanjavur, ELCOT-Tirunelveli, ELCOT-Tiruvarur, ELCOT-Trichy, ELCOT-Unicode, ELCOT-Vellore, LT-ET-Ramya, TAB-ELCOT-Madurai, TAB-ELCOT-Salem, TAB-ELCOT-Tirunelveli, TAB-ELCOT-Tiruvarur, TAB-ELCOT-Trichy, TAB-LT-Lakshman, TAB-ELCOT-Kovai. Of these, only the LT and TAB series are useful for bilingual applications in Tamil and English.
