Although downloading instructions are included on the CD of every Vimala font for both Windows and Mac, at times a computer may be resistant. This page is designed to help you overcome any frustration that might occur, answer your questions, and show you how to download the font effortlessly.

Windows Vista
Go to HELP and type in “add fonts.” You will receive step-by-step instructions, including this crucial element: "To see the FILE tab one must press ALT." After that, all is simple.

Linux
Q - I use a Linux computer and can't figure out how to download the Vimala font. Are they compatible?

There are unfortunately many "flavors" of Linux (RedHat, SuSE, Ubuntu,
Debian, etc.) and many versions of each, so just one Linux instruction
probably won't cover it all.  But here are some links that cover the
basics:
http://www.linux.org.mt/article/ttfonts
http://vietunicode.sourceforge.net/howto/fontlinux.html
http://www.myfonts.com/Article1391.html
It seems that Postscript fonts have ubiquitous support, while TT fonts
do not.

If you have followed instructions on the "Install" file on the CD and are still having difficulty downloading the Vimala font, please let us know the computer you are downloading it to, the system on your computer, and the exact problem. We'll do our best to guide you in getting it installed and working!
