Re: [libreoffice-users] In Writer, how can I type Indian fonts, such as Sanskrit?

Have you installed the language packs for your various Indian 
languages?  If not, you will need to go online to the download page of 
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/  and download and install the 
languages you want to use.

I assume that you have Indian fonts installed on your computer.

"CTL" has many options, and some of them look like they might be Indian 
dialects.
