processing functions, Patrika also offers many useful features such as mail

merge, Indian language find, transliteration from one Indian language to

another, import export from ISCII, Rtf, HTML, plain text, modular editor and a

facility to send Indian language e-mail.

Version 4.0 also has select features of the Shree Lipi Samhita package, used

for developing software programs in Indian languages. Shree-Lipi 4.0 will be

priced between Rs 4,000 and Rs 21,000 depending on the number of features being

opted for.
