Re: Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
Hi Scott I was trying to make wiki, but I could not find how to create new page. All pages have edit options, but no option to add page. Also could not find ubuntu section.

Re: Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
Chandas was already installed in my Ubuntu 12.10. I tried Chandas, Sahdeva, Nakula, Siddhanta, Sanskrit2003, FreeSans from given list which were already installed, as well as some other installed fonts. Copied the same text mentioned in that email to try these fonts. not able to understand Why this issue. Thanks everyone for the help.

Re: Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
However my browser can display Devnagari text correctly just by setting encoding to unicode, not font setting is needed and default font is set to serif. Same font does not work in LyX.

Re: Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
I think it maybe font issue. Not only in pdf file but inside LyX too same text is being displayed. see the screenshot below. The text display in with red circle (in LaTeX source pane) is the correct one, This is how text should appear everywhere. But in LyX main main body and in pdf it is showing incorrectly. Note that this result I am getting with both fonts(Siddhanta.ttf and Sanskrit.ttf) those were given in Windows Devnagari wiki and I have set those fonts in Document Settings as well as LyX look and feel. I wonder how LyX is able to display correct font in LaTeX source pane.

Re: Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
Hi Actually I tried things on Linux, and also followed given steps on wiki for windows. I was able to compile and generate pdf but it does not display fonts correctly. The same problem I have seen with Devnagari on linux terminal and many other softwares too.

Re: Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
Changing font worked and I am able to view proper font in generated pdf when compiling with XeTeX. There is small issue with display of font on LyX. In LyX font appears to be broken. Is there any option to use same font to display in LyX window, which I used to compile the file? Thank you so much!

Re: Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
I have installed all the packages as suggested and updated LyX to latest version 2.0.5 using ppa. I also need to change to LuaTeX/XeTeX font in Document -> Settings -> Font -> checked Use XeTeX/LuaTeX font. After that I am able to successfully compile the file without any errors, however In the pdf the spots with hindi language just shows up blank. tried with chinese and russian language as well but same thing. I am able to see those languages correctly in LyX, firefox, text editor but not in pdf generated. Do I need to include any font anywhere in settings?

Hindi typing in ubuntu 12.10
I have installed lyx 2.0.3 from ubuntu package manager, I hindi fonts installed in my system and I am able to read hindi in my system. Whenever I type something in hindi in lyx, font appears to be broken. When vew source, it shows correct font. When i try to preview/export pdf I get garbage. Is there any guide on how for Devnagri in Ubuntu as there is one for windows at http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Devanagari I have installed texlive-lang-indic package as well. Thank you! Hridayesh
