well, er, um... googling "Norasi +font" gives 11,100 links, starting off
with Norasi Thai fonts....
http://www.google.com/search?q=Norasi+%2Bfont&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&client=firefox-a&rlz=1R1GGGL_en___KR344

maybe you mean Norasi SVG font? something like is shown here?
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/SVG_fonts

or do you mean Tex User Group (TUG) font Norasi?

not sure specifically which variety of Norasi you are wanting to use...
