Hi ,
I am a medical doctor and I mainly use Exec as a PDA.I am not a techie and I need some expert help.
How can I see the web pages which are in Indian languages e.g.Hindi or Marathi? All I see are boxes instead of characters.I have one Hindi font installed on my exec but I can only write with it.How to see web pages that are in Hindi.
Thanks in advance.

i dont think that is possible sir..
you can read ebooks in hindi using the software known as repligo.... that is all..
i mean hindi in browsing... i dont think that is possible...
you may try other bwowsers like opera or minimo oe netfront..
cant say if it will work

I've already tried Net front v3.3,minimo, Opera, even changed the 'user agent' setting of Netfront to Opera 8.6 as suggested on this site for enhanced browsing, but nothing helps.
Is there no one on this site who wants to browse web pages in Devnagari or in other Indian languages,how sad,come on experts, do something about it.

Hello Buddy,

Yes, it's sad but it's true.
The core NLS file has to be modified to support Indic language and I've started few months back on that and leave it after some time. Because it's a huge task.
Also another point has to be noted that, ligature support (for Indic languages) has not been added in WinCE so that conjunct will not be appeared even NLS part is there.
