Unicode Sinhala/Tamil font-size and shape mismatch #6

Description

@nirlanka

The meaning of "PSU" in all 3 languages should be the same size. In Windows, this seems to be okay; but in Linux (elementary os), it's not:

Requirements

  • Same header font for each language, on every OS (even mobile)
  • Same-style fonts: either all sans-serif or serif

(in the above image, the Sinhala & English text is in serif and the Tamil text is in sans-serif)

Suggested solution

It seems to require only a very simple fix. One can use a specific webfont (external or hosted here) specifically for the Sinhala text. Maybe css tags like .sinhala, .tamil that applies this font-style can be helpful for future use.
