[Tugindia] Printing rupee symbol in Latex installed in Ubuntu

[Harish Kumar Holla]

dvips is unable to do it. But you may try dvipdfmx and get pdf file
directly from dvi file. It works for me.

Log: for dvipdfmx

Command Line:   dvipdfmx.exe "doi.dvi"
Startup Folder: F:\Latex workshop\framed\test\only-test

doi.dvi -> doi.pdf

for dvips

Command Line:   dvips.exe "doi.dvi"
Startup Folder: F:\Latex workshop\framed\test\only-test

This is dvips(k) 5.992 Copyright 2012 Radical Eye Software (
www.radicaleye.com)
' TeX output 2013.06.06:1819' -> doi.ps
dvips.exe: ! Couldn't find header file: RupeeTechFat
