We created solutions for Indian Languages even when the OS did not have any plans to implement.
Those solutions were quickly adapted by the publishing industry, offices and the Government (major
consumers of language content). As there were no standards, the developers (like us) worked on
own coding. This resulted in many passionate developers developing fonts and typing solutions for
various languages. Some developers could develop all the Indian Languages and some other
developers restricted themselves to one or two languages. All these were done using customised
fonts and customised keyboards.
