'Install' button in the top right corner. This will copy the .ttf file to

applications.The full name of this font is

Add a text box to the diagram and in the right tab click on the 'Text' tab and from the 'Font' drop down
choose 'Custom...' option to bring up the popup which will have 'System Fonts' check box automatically
selected. In the 'Font Name' section, enter 'Azhagi.Com-SaiIndira-PhoneticTr.At this point Font inside 'Text' tab in right panel will be set to

Click inside the added text box in the diagram. At this point, the Font which was just a moment ago
set to
Azhagi.Com-SaiIndira-PhoneticTr
will automatically change to
Times New Roman
For some reason the draw io does not recognize the custom font loaded moments ago.
Any attempt to choose
Azhagi.Com-SaiIndira-PhoneticTr
from the Font drop down is immediately rejected and does not stay as a selected font
Expected behavior
The draw io application should allow input of characters using loaded custom font.
