Hi,
  Another Oriya font, Samyak Oriya, is available, thanks to work
done by HBCSE. This one does offer as good a coverage as Utkal,
i.e., it works as well as Utkal with the comprehensive set of
Oriya conjuncts that we use. You can find this at
<http://www.gnowledge.org/Gnoware/localization/Samyak_Font/new/Samyak_Oriya.ttf>
or, get the all-in-one font for multiple Indian languages from
http://www.gnowledge.org/Gnoware/localization/Samyak_Font/new/Samyak.ttf
The only remaining problem with Samyak is that it does not
properly declare itself as an Oriya font, i.e., "fc-list :lang=or"
does not show it, even after it has been properly installed. I
have asked them to take a look at this bug.
  Also, you might be interested in the list of Indian language fonts
at http://www.indlinux.org/wiki/index.php/IndicFontsList.

Regards,
Gora
