    I have been using Adobe Indesign CS4 for design, layout and printing of Technical Annual Report Bilingually (English and Hindi). When the final ready to print file is ready for English version of the Annual Report, my client gives me MS Word (2007) version in Aryan2Bilingual Font of the Hindi version of the Annual Report which has to be exactly replaced in the place of English text without disturbing the images, tables, the layout and the design of the pages. I have been successfully placing the text in this manner. Recently my client insists on using Unicode font (Mangal) in his Word files, specifically because he is also using google translation for English to Hindi translation of some technical terms. Hence, my problem started. Indesign is not accepting any Unicode fonts (Mangal) even though I tried using IndicPlus. Help me out please. I have to work with nearly 120 pages of technical input.

    Have you tried Mangal with World-Ready Paragraph Composer switched on?
    See https://creativepro.com/indesign-cs4s-hidden-world-ready-composer.php
    and many other articles.

    Is “Aryan2Bilingual” a Unicode font? I looked for it on the web, but couldn’t download one to check.
    If you temporarily change the Hindi text from Aryan2Bilingual to a font that does not contain Devanagari characters, what do you see?

    Good luck,
    Chris.
