Learn Sanskrit: Reading the lessons off-line
_____________________________________________________________

Off-line reading of Sanskrit lessons

Viewers interested in keeping a copy of the lessons for off-line reference may download the lessons on to their systems. Off-line reading will require special software to view the text in Devanagari. Also, the off-line versions of the lessons will not allow interactive learning. This is not a serious limitation however.

Samskritapriyah offer the lessons in the following formats

 1. HTML format

     This format is very convenient for off-line viewing using a standard web browser such as Netscape 4.5 or Internet Explorer 4.X or higher. Viewing the lessons in HTML requires that the appropriate fonts for Devanagari and Roman diacritics be installed in the systems. The fonts have been made available at this site and so this should not pose a problem. However, installing fonts on systems may not be a smooth affair and so viewers are requested to familiarize themselves with the fonts installation process. Each lesson is available as one file with all the subsections put together.

2. .LLF format

    This format is the native file format used by all the applications developed as part of the IITM Software project. The Multilingual editor or viewer may be used to view the lessons on Win95 and UNIX systems. As of now, MacIntosh users will have use the html or the pdf formats. The Multilingual editor or viewer will have to be installed on the systems. Please read through the pages on downloading and installing the IITM Editor.

3.  PDF format

   This format is sufficiently universal and the Acrobat Reader on a system will be adequate to view the lessons off-line.  There are a few shortcomings with this format of the lessons with respect to the presentation. The lessons are presented in one single file for each lesson and so the convenience of the presentation as in these pages will be lost.

Receiving Lessons via email:

Samskritapriyah will be pleased to provide these lessons via email in the html format. Kindly send in a request to rkk@acharya.iitm.ac.in expressing your desire to receive the lessons by email. The lessons will be sent as attachments and will require the multilingual editor for viewing the text.
