What are Malayalam Non-Unicode Fonts?
Non-Unicode Malayalam fonts use legacy encoding instead of modern Unicode standards. This means the text typed using these fonts may not display correctly unless the same font is installed on the system.

Important: Non-Unicode fonts may not display correctly on mobile devices or modern browsers. For better compatibility, use Unicode fonts.
