Here are some of the pictures from Freedel.in:

Yesterday, some members of iLUG-Cal (and Kushal) met at ye olde Oly Pub and discussed GNU/Linux, Maya (!!), and a lot of other things under the sun. Here are some pictures:

Any idea on how to do this with Free tools ??

I was thinking of using the PostScript backend of Cairo for getting complex text to render properly in the PS outputs from Firefox, and hence I downloaded the latest source from CVS. ..and guess what - it has been already implemented!! Mozilla can now print Indic properly. Check out this Postscript file obtained from Firefox (using print to file).

I supplied the following arguments to the configure script:

--prefix=/opt --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk2 --enable-cairo --enable-pango --enable-application=browser --enable-xprint


…and in case anyone is wondering how I figured out that the magic is being done by cairo - here are the first few lines in the postscript file:
