Hi Rawat! I'm really sorry, I didn't know that this is a mailing list type of forum ;-(
Second, if you look carefully, you will see that the text is not entirely english. In many places words with sanskrit transliteration marks are used. But as you said, it can actually copy/pasted and it didn't even come to my mind! So this part is actually working and that is great! So I am almost there. The remaining problem is another type. The provided tamalten font will display the marks, but I need to use another font to display the final document. It also contains the same diacritical marks but uses another encoding. But this might be a question to another person, I know the author of the fonts, I will ask him. Thanks for the help! Btw. If anyone needs to use sanskrit transliterated fonts, here are the resources: http://www.krishna-das.com/ksyberspace/fonts/ On Tuesday, November 26, 2013 4:47:11 PM UTC+7, V S Rawat wrote: > > Dear Sir Srivas ji, > > firstly, you should not have sent 2.2 MB 68 page pdf file and 181 KB zip > to all the list members unasked.
