The weight of a particular font is the thickness of the character outlines relative to their height.A typeface may come in fonts of many weights, from ultra-light to extra-bold or black; four to sixweights are not unusual, and a few typefaces have as many as a dozen
Check the Languages in System Preferences > Languages & Text. You will need to edit the list adding any additional languages you want, with Devanagari right down the bottom of the list, along with possible explicit Nepali support (I can't read to distinguish).
Does the document not open at all? Do you really need to use exactly those fonts? OS X comes with fonts for Nepali already installed (they have Devanagari in their name) and Calibri is just a standard Windows Latin font.
You don't change language by changing fonts on any modern Unicode system. You have to change the keyboard layout (system prefs/keyboard/input sources) to Nepali. Devanagari fonts are normally used for Hindi, Nepali, Marathi, and several other languages.
As Peter said, your document may be in some non-standard encoding, in which case if would have to find a copy of the non-standard font that was used to create it. I'd recommend you not create such documents yourself but stick to Unicode which is the international standard and supported out of the box by all computers these days.
We offer Nepali language fonts for you to download and install in your Windows / MAC computers for free. You can browse our large collection of Nepali fonts and choose the fonts you like. There is no need to download all the fonts as a bundle and keep unnecessary fonts on your computer. instead, you can preview our fonts before downloading to see if the style matches your design. Our Nepali fonts are free to download and install in any device of your choice. but if you intend to use these for commercial use or commercial projects, you might need to acquire permission from the creators of the font(s). we do not hold any responsibility nor grand permission for commercially using any font/typeface. We simply offer you Nepali fonts to download.
It is very hard to display text on-screen cleanly, typical pixels are too big to draw small shapes such as text glyphs without distortions of all kinds. Which is why serif fonts are rarely used on computer systems, serifs are even smaller shapes so they are more affected by those distortions.
Different systems apply different distortion rules, that is why text does not look the same on different systems. Very often there is no "good" choice, you improve one parameter at the expense of another.
Users react negatively to rules they are not used to (Linux people hate Windows rendering, Windows people hate Apple rendering and so on). It's just a matter of habit, force them to use the new rendering for some months, they will hate returning to the previous one.
Next option, the designer of the Nepali fonts only tested them in Windows, spent a lot of time tuning for windows and workaround-ing Windows rendering bugs. The result in Linux is unsatisfactory because those bugs are not present in Linux, the workarounds trigger other problems, and Linux has other bugs the fonts are not tuned for. However this is very unlikely, Linux has a very mature text rendering stack those days, and the windows versions that required drastic workarounds in fonts are quite old nowadays (you still find such problems early TTF fonts for windows).
So most probably just the first case. There are lots of tips on the Internet to tune Linux to use the same rendering as windows (infinality, etc). It's not a good idea unless you only target windows users and windows fonts.
I have already downloaded various Nepali fonts from online and can successfully write with them in my still title panel, however when I copy&paste the Nepali from notepad (even after stripping it of rich text formatting) into PP I get a bunch of rectangles. I have shifted settings to accept Middle Eastern and Asian languages in the Preferences panel, and yet still no improvement!
Currently tried working on this on a Windows system with most up to date creative cloud version of Premiere Pro and on a Macbook with PP2014. Any suggestions, clarifications if this is a system error, or solutions are welcome. Please let me know if you need any additional information? I am on a deadline and know this subtitling is out of my scope, but cannot currently afford to find someone to take over professionally completing it due to time constraints.
You can download several true type Devanagari fonts for free, which I have collected from various sources. You can learn about Nepali Unicode font as well.

There are more than 55,000 fonts of Latin/Roman alphabets (in which English is written), but there are only a few hundred of Devanagari, or Nepali, fonts. Not many people like typing in Nepali, but the number gets even lower when we think about the actual number of fonts we use while typing Nepali.
Devanagari script was derived and developed from the Bhrama Lipi (script) in India 2,000 years ago, including Tamil, Marathi, Telegu. It flourished here as it shared similarities with the Sanskrit language during the Lichhavi and Malla period. But, it was James Prinsep, an English scholar, archaeologist and philologist for British East India Company, who developed a simplified, readable and writable Devanagari script in 1837.
He has designed a few Roman fonts and six more varieties of the Kamana font. His recent productions include one for the Curriculum Development Centre which has started using his font for its publications. Singh is teaching typography to the students of graphic communication at Kathmandu University, suggesting hopes for more months in the future.
Along with him, many artists, art students, publication houses, and companies have developed their fonts in Nepal. And if we observe, we can see that the trend is to artists name the font they have designed after themselves or their loved ones.
Nepal is quite young in terms of its academic typography tradition. It was in 2004 that Kathmandu University first introduced typography as a subject in the degree programme. Five years later, Sirjana College of Fine Arts also integrated the subject in its course. Lalit Kala Campus, the oldest fine art institution of Nepal, is the third institution that has typography as a course option.
Bijaya Maharjan, the head of Graphic Communications Department at Sirjana College of Fine Arts, says his students start from basic lines to shapes, from angles to composition, and learn to use them together in developing a font.
In the next step, they learn to scan and trace the outlines digitally and make all of them on the computer, to compile them all together. And these fonts can be sold as a package, and one can even make a living as a typographer, he adds.
Unicode is a uniform encoding for the different type of font all over the world. The word "Unicode" is a unique, unified, universal encoding. It is a set of unique code to represent the visual art, here the unicode visual art represent the text character set. Unicode has fixed set of code chart for all the character. Example to represent unicode, here to dispaly character "a" there is unique set of code, which is called unicode.
Preeti to Unicode tools convert traditional Nepali Font, which are typed using/installing fonts to Unicode characters in Nepali, which can be use in any media or machine without using/instally any traditional fonts like Preeti font.

There was no common nepali ascii structure for the old fonts. so each vendors use different nepali fonts with different keyboard layouts. this makes difficult with nepali users as they need to install each nepali font from different websites.
A good designer knows which font fits into a scenario. The same designer will also have a wide range of fonts to choose from their collection. Choice of good fonts plays a vital role in the making of a good graphic design or visual media content. Popular brands have a definitive selection of fonts and color they use for media, ads, and promotions to appear unique from other brands. Similarly, categorical niches have their own unambiguous selection of fonts that differentiate them from each other. Fashion industry prefers thin and aesthetically elaborate fonts while tech industries like flat and creative fonts.
Stylish Fonts not only add a touch of elegance and appeal, they also help to express the objective or message of the artwork in a delightful manner. Rights fonts with the right graphics and color combinations convey the essence of the ad piece, poster, logo or any form of creative digital imagination.Unfortunately, the style of most of Nepali fonts still remains the same. Huge variety of English fonts can be found with a multitude of style, design, art or even for the dyslexic. Designers can attribute fonts according to the mood they express and the requirements of the design. But when it comes to Nepali fonts, some of us may not be familiar with many stylish fonts that we can choose. The most popular Nepali font used for typing is Preeti font. Whereas Sagarmatha, Kantipur, Fontasi Himali, Kanchan, Mangal are among the commonly used fonts.
