Padma Description

Padma is a system for transforming Indic text between public and proprietary formats. Padma currently supports transformation in Gujarati, Bengali, Gurmukhi, Telugu, Malayalam, Tamil and Devanagari (including Marathi). Indic scripts suffer from lack of standards support in various OS and platforms. As a result, many public and proprietary schemes have been adopted over time by different groups and businesses. Padma's goal is to bridge the gap between closed and open standards until the day Unicode support is widely available on all platforms. Padma transforms Indic text encoded in proprietary formats (ex: dynamic fonts) automatically to Unicode. Padma also has support for transforming from ISCII and transliteration schemes like ITRANS and RTS (Telugu only).
