Kapil,

Some background information regarding the problem.

In the `old days', tex4ht provided for a given (la)tex font different
htf fonts addressing different character sets.  For instance, the
(la)tex cmr family of fonts had htf fonts under the unicode and
iso-8859-1 branches.  In the iso branch quite a few characters got
bitmap representations due to lack of native support in the iso
character set.

About half a year ago I started deleting the non-unicode htf fonts,
and provide instead unicode.4hf translation files.  When tex4ht.c
fails to find a htf font for a character set it internally creates
such a font from the unicode version using the appropriate unicode.4hf
mapping. For instance, the iso-8859-1 version of cmr.htf is created
from the unicode version of cmr.htf through the mapping provided in
the iso-8859-1 version of unicode.4hf.

The unicode.4hf mapping currently doesn't allow creation of bitmap
fonts. For that to happen the  tex4ht.c  code needs to be modified to
provide enhanced support for unicode.4hf files.
