[XeTeX] xelatex to doc?

[ShreeDevi Kumar]

As suggested earlier by  Zdenek Wagner, use  \XeTeXgenerateactualtext in
the preamble of your latex document. Then the Devanagari text can also be
easily copied from the generated pdf. We use this option in pdfs posted on
sanskritdocuments.org and it works very well.
