Introduction

Akshar is a variable display sans-serif font family that supports Latin and Devanagari. It is designed for titles, statements, headlines, annoucements, intros, outros, and other display texts. Akshar (Hindi: अक्षर) literally means an alphabet or a letter in Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati and other Indic languages.
