[ILUG-Cochin.org] Malayalam in Firefox on a mac

Thank you very much for the quick replies.

I already checked these. I didn't try the first one as it is paid. But I tried Padma addon but no luck.

Might be something with the other addons I added to FF. Will try removing them.

Malayalam is fine on Lin and Win (FF on both), only problem is with the mac. And in Safari it is working fine too, so I guess not something to do with font ?

Will try more and will keep you updated.

Thanks again.
