Download Rupee Font For Free

`


Everyone knows that the Indian Rupee has been given a new symbol `. This is not just a  symbol to represent INR but it also shows the strength of the Indian Economy. New keyboards will have a key for this symbol. None of the fonts have this symbol and am sure all of us want to use ` instead of the traditional “Rs.” right away.

Foradian Technologies have incorporated this symbol and have created a font: 'Rupee Foradian'. It is available as a free download and that is the reason am sharing it with all of you.

Note: This is only for windows users. There might be other ways to use this for the Mac and open source users.

Steps to install the font

  • Log on to http://blog.foradian.com/ site
  • Download the font file. There are 3 versions and I suggest version 2 (my preference)
  • Now copy and paste this font file in the fonts folder that’s found in the control panel
  • Now open Microsoft Word and change the font to Rupee Foradian or sometimes it might appear as a blank, as the fonts are always in the alphabetical order u will find it in the ‘R’ list.
Step 4: Selecting the font Rupee Foradian
Step 4: The font may appear as a blank also
  • After selecting the font type ~ key, found on the right of the ‘1’ key, whoa!! you have got the new rupee symbol `
