[S. venkataraman] I had a look at the .fd file. Everywhere,
for fonts of
weight bx they have substituted m/n. So, bold and italic is
possible in devnag
only if we can get suitable bold fonts I guess. The .fd files
have to be modified
too. Hopefully, after Amitabh Trehan recovers from illness and
comes back
we can do some thing at Delhi chapter of TUG India.
