The Latin character set supports Microsoft codepage 1252 (Latin 1) plus a large set of diacritics for transliterating not just Sanskrit but also other Indian languages. This is based on Monotype's famous Bembo type, inspired by 15th Century Venetian models, but has also been thoroughly redrawn to harmonize in weight and proportion with the Devanagari.

Letter shapes have been made more stylistically and proportionally consistent, and the glyph set supports more than 680 consonant conjunct sequences attested in Sanskrit texts.
