Why Kannada Fonts Like Tunga Don’t Work Smoothly on Wix

Wix, like many global website builders, has limited support for regional system-installed fonts. Fonts like Tunga (or other native Kannada fonts) are typically available only on Windows machines where they are installed by default. When you try to upload such fonts into Wix, the system doesn’t recognize them properly.
This leads to:
Text breaking into unreadable boxes or symbols.
Improper alignment and spacing issues.
Content appearing differently on mobile vs desktop.
Compatibility errors across browsers.
In short, what looks perfect on your local Word file may become completely unreadable when uploaded onto Wix.
The Practical Solution: Convert Kannada Text into Images
The best way to represent Kannada content on a Wix website is by designing the content as an image.
Here’s how:
Approach a Kannada flyer/brochure designing company – They usually have the tools and expertise to work with Kannada fonts smoothly.
Prepare your content in Word using Tunga (or your preferred font).
Share the content with the design company and ask them to convert it into high-quality image formats.
Request two sets of designs:
One optimized for desktop view.
One optimized for mobile view.
Once you have these images, you can directly upload them to your Wix website without worrying about font compatibility.
Added Advantage: Ready-to-Use for Digital Marketing
The Kannada images created for your website can also be repurposed for your digital marketing campaigns:
Use them as banners for social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or WhatsApp campaigns.
Share them in Kannada-focused communities to reach your target audience more effectively.
Maintain consistent branding across your website and digital promotions.
This way, your investment in getting high-quality Kannada creatives pays off in more ways than one.
Final Thoughts
The most reliable solution is to treat your Kannada content as professionally designed images. Not only does this ensure proper readability across devices, but it also gives you ready-to-use material for wider digital marketing.
