Hi Zdenek,

All the tests we were doing on the FreeSerif Devanagari  were in the
stock Ubuntu distro version of Firefox.
No special settings were made.

Have you sorted this out?

I seem to remember some bugs having to do with web fonts... I would
have to dig through my notes.
Something like... some browsers turn off some features when fonts are
included over the Web (this is a very hazy memory).

Cheers
