If http://www.bbc.co.uk/hindi/images/download_text.gif 
is any indication, the font doesn't look too promising. 
Have you seen it? I am on a Mac and can't open it, it's a
244K .exe  Why an .exe?

BTW, the menus and headers at http://www.bbc.co.uk/hindi/ 
come out as gibberish on my screen, the articles are fine. 
(MacOS 9.0)  

The great enthousiasme in the message I forwarded was what 
struck me, and then, several times the word 'STANDARD' in capitals!

It has about 600 glyphs. But no Latin letters, which, IIRC,
disqualifies it as a real Unicode font? 

Some of the glyphs are are unfamiliar to me.
