Instead of generating fonts from scratch, Srijika restyles existing glyph outlines from template fonts, ensuring consistency in complex character combinations and variants. The system produces a variety of fonts, passing quality checks and demonstrating accurate reproduction of glyph sequences, with evaluations showing its effectiveness compared to simpler baselines.
