We need more information to begin to figure out what the problem is.  The 
first question is whether you are using Windows or Linux, because the Windows 
version probably won't render Indic languages correctly until we figure out 
how to build for win32 with SDL_Pango support.  I ask that because your first 
email had a MS Word .doc file as the attachment illustrating the problem.

My guess is that your translation isn't displaying correctly because the 
Windows build doesn't use SDL_Pango.
