Re: Hindi Alphabetic Bulleting in CSS3 (Indian Languages)

Dear all we converted the tamil & malayalam bulleting list as  PDF documents 
to solve the font issues.
You can download/view  from
http://www.malayalamresourcecentre.org/w3c/malbulletinglist.pdf  (Malayalam)
http://www.malayalamresourcecentre.org/w3c/tamilbulletinglist.pdf  (Tamil)

Thanks
Jose
