avagraha in bangla script - I need clear scans

ananga - Mon, 28 Nov 2005 23:37:38 +0530

I have been corresponding with the manufacturer of the bengali font I use as it currently has no avagraha and I need one to typeset sanskrit.

These are the ones that I have found so far including one from a Unicode bengali font.

Please post scans of nice clear printed avagrahas. I'd also be curious to see how one distinguishes between ha and avagraha in handwriting so scans of that are welcome too.

Thanks

Dear Antony

Do you have any printed or manuscript samples of Bengali avagraha? I'm particularly interested to know if the portion which would normally join the Ha-shaped body to the head line is retained or not.
