Thank you for taking care of my problem.

If so, I don't understand what happens because if I switch to the fonts 
I have called "sanskritrom" the definition of which is:

\newfontfamily{\sanskritrom}[%
Mapping=velthuis-romanized,%
Script=Latin]{%
   FreeSerif}%

the mapping is no longer velthuis-sanskrit. I have a 
vethuis-romanized.map file in which numerals are mapped to arabic 
numerals U+0030	>	U+0030 etc.

Why in this case some digits are mapped to devanagari digits?

Best regards.
