Default Mangal font KR^ishhNamalaghnataH 30.08.2006 18:59:01 The default font for typing some north Indian languages like Hindi is Mangal. I have installed another font called Chandas. Periodically the system will switch from Chandas back to Mangal in Word 2003 and always in Outlook 2003. I am running XP Pro with all patches applied and fully-patched Office 2003. In Word I have changed the normal.dot in Styles to the Chandas font for non-Latin languages. My question: is there a way to force the system to use Chandas as its default Devanagari font? Since this is a systems font issue too, should I post it instead in the WinXP section? -- Philoglossist (a.k.a.
