Which font new Sinhala text uses
First the font your PDF already uses for Sinhala, even when only a few of its letters are embedded: MythosPDF loads the complete font and sets new letters in it. If the PDF has no Sinhala font at all, it asks before adding an open Noto font for those letters, and tells you it did. Sinhala is a shaped script, so each word is shaped with the full font before it is written, and the real letters are stored so the text stays searchable.
Serif fonts for a Sinhala thesis

Questions people ask
+Can I use Roman numerals for the front matter?
Not yet. Arabic numbers are supported.
+My university requires PDF/A. Can you convert?
Not yet. Most thesis tools and word processors can export PDF/A directly.
+Can I write parts of the thesis in Sinhala and parts in English?
Yes. Each language is set in the font the PDF uses for it, so a bilingual thesis keeps both fonts.
