The version of Arial Unicode MS on my system does have layout tables for
Devanagari. I don't know with what product this version was introduced to
my system -- I've got Win2K, IE5.5 and Office XP.
BTW, don't go and "borrow" Mangal.ttf from a Win2K user and install it on
Win98; you won't get the results you're looking for.
