Yes, it worked for me after installing SHREE850.ttf from http://www.udayavani.com/help.asp?nosession=y&

On one linux computer, I just double clicked it and it installed the font. On another linux computer I had to do it manually. http://www.wikihow.com/Install-True-Type-Fonts-on-Ubuntu

On a windows XP PC, to read Udayavani in firefox, just copy the above font to C:\windows\fonts

Hope it helps, Kiran.
