Is there some error message? Trying with txtconv I can verify that the
map converts the file to something that looks like Telugu but then I
have a problem typical for RHEL based distros, XeTeX finds the
Pothana2000 font but xdvipdfmx cannot find it although the font is
installed and other applications can use it.
