Mali

A neat school handwriting revised from the national font TH Mali Grade 6, whose name points to the tidy hand of a sixth-grade pupil. The letters are upright, round and carefully formed. It suits learning material, notes and anything that should feel personal.

The zip holds the original 12 font files exactly as they were published, the licence text and a README with a checksum for each file.

The 44 consonants with the name each one is called by, then the vowel forms, the marks, the numerals and the signs. Vowels and marks that sit above, below or beside a letter are shown on อ (o ang), the silent letter Thai writes them on when they stand alone.
