Re: [XeTeX] XeLateX problem after updating
Never mind. I think I have figured it out. There is one unicode
candrabindu code for the Devanagari (0910) and another for the Roman
(0310). The Roman code does not work in the Devanagari.

I have one more question for the Sanskritists on the list. How does
one get the candra-bindu to work with a preceding long a? I inserted
the unicode character for candrabindu into its proper place in the
Roman transliteration but when that gets converted into Devanagari by
RomDev a blank square appears in place where candrabindu should be.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again.

Please use the updated version! Not the old stuff from 2009.

It has. But I didn't see previously the error message ("** ERROR **
Invalid glyph index (gid 1329)") in this context and the only
"proof" for the claim that the source of the problem is the \=y is a
log-file of a 70 page document.
Without a small complete ("minimal") example it is impossible to
investigate in a sensible way.
