How to display Tamil/Sinhala fonts in Opera Mini browser

Opera Mini by default does not display bitmap fonts which results in Tamil and Sinhala fonts not being displayed. However, a small tweak to the settings of Opera Mini can allow you to see both Tamil and Sinhala fonts.

  • First, type a href=”opera:config”>opera:config in the address bar

  • Now, scroll down until you find “Use bitmap fonts for complex scripts”

  • Save your settings.
