Much thanks to Mr. Pushpananda, the designer of the FM fonts, who gave me kind permission to use these fonts and post these online. His immense contribution to modern Sinhala through his FM fonts are much appreciated by everyone using his fonts.

You can convert any Sinhala FM Font to the corresponding Sinhala unicode font by following the set of steps outlined below.

• UN-Abhaya (Unicode equivalent of FM Abahaya font)
• UN-Abhaya-Bold (Unicode equivalent of FM AbaBld font - bold version of FM Abhaya)
• Someone has converted the rest of FM fonts using the instructions below and posted them online. You can download them here

• Download and install the required software Fontlab Studio and Microsoft VOLT
• Open the FM font you want to convert (e.g. FMMalithi.ttf) and the potha.ttf file in Fontlab. Change the Font Info of 'potha.ttf' to the new Font (e.g. UN-Malithi)
• Open the create_glyphs_unicode.py macro in the Fontlab and change the font names at the beginning of the macro (e.g. to FMMalithi and UN-Malithi)
• Delete all glyphs from the 'potha.ttf' except for the last 5 glyphs and run the macro.
• Some Glyphs are missing and they are marked in red. Create these glyphs by copying over the parts from other glyphs. You can use UN-Abhaya.ttf in Fontlab and use it as an example for this step. Expect to spend at least 15 minutes on this step.
• Use "File->Generate Font" in Fontlab to save the font in ttf format (e.g. UN-Malithi.ttf)
• Open this font in MS VOLT, then choose "Import Project" and select volt_project.vtp file.
• Click "Compile" in MS VOLT (there shouldn't be any errors), then select "Ship Font" from the menu to save the final Sinhala unicode font.
• Install this new unicode font. Enjoy!
