But I'm not sure what's the point of copying the Latin script glyphs of another font if the resulting glyphs are not different. Most Linux software uses fontconfig for font substitution for missing characters or users can select the appropriate font. Another option is to draw new glyphs. I contacted the Author of Rachana Font. He said that he will realease a font shortly by removing the non-free glyphs. And he said that those are not arial Glyphs. He took some sans glyphs ( he is not remebering about the name or license of the font) and Modified glyphs. We will release a new version without using English Glyphs.
