Note

These lists are derived from pages on a weblog which may be no longer maintained. The author, "tamilezhutthuru3", appears to be R.Padmakumar, author of Effort in Standardizing Unicode Tamil Sort Order. The pages themselves are still available (as of 2010-03-23) and have much more information than is summarized here, including

• links to download the fonts (but at least some of these links are non-functional)
• graphics of the encoding sequences

Some of the fonts may be under copyright and/or require licensing fees.
