                   Namasakar! Thanks for your reply to my queries as a 
new (La)TeX user
in TUGIndia Mailing List. What is the another book referred by you which 
is good for word users?
 From where do I get my complimentary copy of Tex Live CD ( My postal 
address is : 11,
Shantiniketan , Anushakatinagar, Mumbai_400094  )?
I understand that for Indian Languages especially Devanagari we have a 
commercial solution
in C-DAC's ISMM/ Leap Office . What would be the starting point in this 
work of getting
Devnagari out of LaTeX?
Regards.
