The default Armenian font in Mac OS operation system family is Mshtakan font.
The font is totally not readable, painful for eyes, too small characters.
There is a very nice free font called DejaVu http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/Main_Page. Which provides way more readable fonts.
So let start changing the default Armenian system font.

There is a very nice free font called DejaVu http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/Main_Page. Which provides way more readable fonts.
So let start changing the default Armenian system font.
- Download Armenian fonts from here
- Install all DejaVuSerif fonts by double clicking on them or selecting the files and command + "array down"
- Then go to following folder in Mac OS
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/CoreText.framework/Versions/A/Resources - Backup DefaultFontFallbacks.plist file.
- Copy DefaultFontFallbacks.plist to Desktop and modify with Xcode, TextEdit or Vim (whatever editor you use)
- Replace Mshtakan word everywhere with desired font name. NOTE : The font name should not contain the spaces e.g. in my case is was DejaVuSerif.
Enjoy the better Armenian default system font which looks like this.
