Hello,
The itrans script that comes with the package is buggy.
$ itrans -i ex_latex.itx -o ex_latex.tst
** ITRANS 5.30 (8 July 2001) (TeX Interface)
font.c::Error: could not open dvng10.tfm for reading (tfm)
Error: fillup font error (fill up from dvng.ifm)
Error: could not load in IFM file (line 31, #indianifm=dvng.ifm)
Here is a patch that fixes this particular problem.

However, other fixes may be required before the script will work for
the "generic" user without major tweaks. For example, most dvi2xxx
programs fail to find the "devnac.ps" font file.
Thanks and regards,
Kapil.
