Thai National Fonts (SIPA / TLWG)
The Thai National Fonts are the state-commissioned, freely licensed typefaces released by SIPA, NECTEC, and the TLWG project so that Thai government and public-sector documents would no longer depend on proprietary fonts bundled with foreign software. This set includes TH Sarabun PSK — the typeface the Thai cabinet mandated for official documents — along with the earlier NECTEC families still shipped with Thai Linux distributions. All are free for commercial use. See also looped Thai fonts and the licensing guide.
