Dear all 
I am attaching a pdf of Rgveda with newly developed Vedic fonts. For only the first mantra I used double svara due to time constraints. Also to indicate the padapatha I have used a gap similar to Satwalekar's editions.
Any changes required please let me know.

Thanks all

Thank you,
Irene

The font looks good. Congratulations on developing a great font. There is a typo in the title - the g in Rgveda is missing. Line 14 should have dIrgha svarita in bharanta. Line 15 should have dIrgha svarita in rAjanta.

One general suggestion would be to include devatA, RShi and Chandas for all sUktams. This is very important for the Rgveda. Prof. Kashyap’s book does a very good job.

Dear Krishnaprasad Ji,

     Your fonts look great.  I have a question about the marking for dīrgha-svarita.  I have not seen such a separate marking for dīrgha-svarita in other editions of the R̥gveda that I have.  What is the source for such a separate marking?

Dear Irene Ji
Thanks
The fonts are non commercial and distributed for free.

Dear Balasubramanian 
Thanks.
I will correct the typo.

Dear Prof Deshpande Ji
Thanks

The marking in the PDF was taught by my Veda guru ji who is also my father while I was learning. I don't have any specific book for that. The pada patha markings were found in Satvalekar's edition.

Namaste Prasadacharya, 

Nice readable font and also adding the numbers for the mantras, suktas, etc. will help to search the particular sukta or mantra easily. If you have already thought in your mind, nice.

Warmly,
Gowtham
