Hi!

Its almost ready!!  Nagarjuna (Padma's owner) has
made necessary modification in Padma to accommodate
Bengali and it should be available from its official site soon.

Meanwhile, you can get it from

http://www.imsc.res.in/~golam/padma-with-bn.xpi

However please read this first :-) I am asking you to test above for
two reasons. Firstly, you can let me know if I have missed
any conjuncts or something else is wrong!

Secondly and crucially, there is a rendering issue specially for ABP.
So, if any expert on Firefox/ Unicode/Javascript can throw me
some solution for it.

In my understanding the problem is the following....

It seems ABP sometime uses three different fonts even to
construct a single word.
The first font provides all alphabets, some conjuncts and the
second, third provide mainly conjuncts. This leads to matra
for conjuncts (from 2nd and 3rd fonts) to not appear properly.
It seems to me,  this is happening because of the presence of
<font></font> tag inside a single word. It essentially separates
matras from the letter and so blocking proper rendering!!

So...please feel free to post your comments, suggestions!!


Cheers
Golam
