Step 1. Get The Malayalam Fonts Installed
I have saved a local copy of the common fonts used by popular Malayalam websites, download them from here.
Linux font installation :
The easiest way is to copy the fonts to a directory, like /home/foo/myfonts/ and list it in your $HOME/.fonts.conf file as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<dir>/home/foo/myfonts</dir>
</fontconfig>
Windows font installation :
Control Panel->Fonts
File->Install New Font..
Step 2. Get Biju's Malayalam Mozilla/Fiefox Extension
Install the the malayalam charecter switch extension form Biju's Mozdev Quicktools.
Biju's extension does not seem to work if you are using newer version of Firefox.
Step 2. Get Nagarjuna's Padma text transforming extension
Please install following the directions. After install make sure you ad the URL of your favourite malayalam sites to the extension configuration which can be accessed by going to Tools->Extensions select "Pdama" from the list of extensions. Click on "Update" button for auto transform and add the malayalam site you are interested in, if its not already listed there.
