Installing Unicode Support
If you are using later realease of Windows OS(Operating System) like Windows Vista or Seven skip to the next part, (installing bangle fonts) because you have already got it included with the OS.

Install Unicode Support for Windows XP or earlier release.

Step 1:
To view Unicode alphabets on your computer in any application, you need Unicode support. It’s called complex script.

Download this from here.

Alternately you can do it using Windows XP CD. Anyway, I’m keeping it simple.

Step 2:

> Click “Install Complex Scripts”.
> After it is done. Close the software.

Installing Bangla Fonts

Step 1:
Download Bangla Unicode fonts.
Download these two most used fonts.

> Bangla.ttf
> SolaimanLipi.ttf
You can download more fonts from here: http://www.omicronlab.com/bangla-fonts.html

Step 2:
Remember you need to be an administrator to do this. Limited user accounts don’t have privilege to install fonts.

Install Bangla Unicode fonts by doing this.
> Firstly copy all the fonts you downloaded.
> Open my computer
> Double click c: drive.
> Double click Windows
> Double click Fonts
> Now paste those fonts.


Step 3:
Restart your PC to adopt the OS with the changes made.

Configure your browser with your favorite fonts.

> Click Options.
> Click "Under the Hood"
