you may use our Itranslator 99

Changes in Build 2.0.0.38:

Read-only ITRANS files did not save and also no warning was given. Now, read-only files open as 'new file', forcing the user to save it under a new name. (MS Word behaviour)

{\m+} did not convert after preceding svarahs. Corrected.

Combined Conversion: Converting very long paragraphs considerably
slowed down the system. This has been corrected.

Combined Conversion converts line-by-line, i.e. after every Devanagari line follows a Transliteration line. However, most Sanskrit texts consists of verses. To achieve this verse-by-verse conversion, insert a blank line after every verse.

Changes in the Sanskrit 2003 font:

On the request of many users, the old-style 'tva' ligatures have been replaced with modern, Hindi-like design.

Candrabindu before svarita (udatta) was too small. Corrected.

Keyboard Layout
If you are used to type with the 8-bit Sanskrit 99 Font, then you may not like the INSCRIPT Keyboard that is used for the Sanskrit 2003 Font. In that case you may download the "Sanskrit 99" Keyboard Layout, which resembles - with minor changes - the keyboard of the Sanskrit 99 Font, but is Unicode- compatible. (Screenshot)
