Viewersinterested in keeping a copy of the lessons for off-line reference may downloadthe lessons on to their systems. Off-line reading will require additional software to view the text in Devanagari. Also, theoff-line versions of the lessons will not allow interactive learning. Thisis not a serious limitation however.

For our friendswho have difficulty accessing the internet, the lessons may be obtained via email. Please see below.

Samskritapriyah offerthe lessons in the following formats

1. HTML format

This format is very convenient for off-line viewing using a standardweb browser such as Netscape 4.5 or Internet Explorer 4.X or higher. Viewingthe lessons in HTML requires that appropriate fonts for Devanagari and Roman diacritics beinstalled in the systems. The fonts have been made available at this siteIITM Fontsand so this should not pose a problem. Please download the iitmsans and iitmipafonts suited to your system (Windows, Linux or Mac). However, installingfonts on systems may not always be a smooth affair and so viewers are requestedto familiarize themselves with the fonts installation process appropriateto their systems. Each lesson is available as one file with all the subsectionsput together.

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