Tuladha Jejeg is a Javanese-script typeface designed by Taco Roorda in 1838 and digitized by R.S. Wihananto.[1][2] Roorda's design is based on the contemporary handwritten Surakartan-Javanese manuscript.[1] The letters are composed of alternating thick and thin strokes, and some have serifs.[1] The typeface was widely used for over a century during the Dutch East Indies colonial era.[1] Wihananto's Unicode font of the same name is bundled into MediaWiki for use in Javanese-language editions of Wikimedia projects.[3]

Wihananto's font is available on SIL's Open Font License. Version 2.0.1 was released on 15 June 2013.[4] It utilizes Graphite to render the complexities of Javanese script.[5][6] OpenType version of the font without Graphite requirement was published on 30 August 2022 by Fadhl Haqq.[7]
