Need for developing Information Systems in Indian vernacular languages is now felt more than ever. Use of local scripts becomes inevitable in the creation of Information Systems for digitized palm leaves, copper plates, manuscripts and local documents. M-ISIS is a localized version of CDS\ISIS for Malayalam language, which is programmed using ISIS32.DLL created by UNESCO. It is a bibliographic information system for Malayalam documents using Malayalam script. Together with the techniques of 'Nitya Digital Archives' it searches using Malayalam script and retrieves both references and full texts. A special font 'Meera.ttf' is designed and a rendering engine to process conjunct formation is programmed, enabling both data entry and query formulation in Malayalam. Paper describes the creation of a digital archive of 'Mathrubhumi' weekly. A few issues of the weekly were scanned to PDF using Adobe Acrobat. Catalogue data of every individual article was fed into a CDS\ISIS database through a data entry worksheet designed in M-ISIS. The prototype shows immense possibilities of localization of CDS\ISIS in Indian languages. |
