The Latin character set supports Microsoft codepage 1252 (Latin 1) plus a large set of diacritics for transliterating not just Sanskrit but also other Indian languages. This is based on Monotype's famous Bembo type, inspired by 15th Century Venetian models, but has also been thoroughly redrawn to harmonize in weight and proportion with the Devanagari. The Sanskrit Text Devanagari is accompanied in the font by a companion Latin design.

This means that the Sanskrit Text font may be used for literary, scientific, and also religious Sanskrit texts. These characters are essential for correct representation of the various early Hindu religious texts known collectively as the Vedas. Sanskrit Text is one of the first fonts to incorporate support for the Unicode encoding of Vedic symbols and marks. The glyph set specification was prepared with advice from Anshuman Pandey, and is based on both existing catalogues as well as new analysis of specific Vedic and literary texts. Letter shapes have been made more stylistically and proportionally consistent, and the glyph set supports more than 680 consonant conjunct sequences attested in Sanskrit texts. The design of Sanskrit Text is based on Monotype Devanagari, a type initially manufactured for hot metal typesetting technologies back in 1930s, but has been thoroughly revised and expanded by John Hudson and Fiona Ross (Tiro Typeworks). Sanskrit Text is Devanagari font specially targeting the typesetting of Sanskrit texts in a traditional style.
