English to Tamil Translator script

Hi friends,

Started creating translator script in ruby,

which will convert to english document file to tamil pdf file.

Main idea of script is to convert English pdf to Tamil Pdf

So its easy to translate e-book easily to our mother tongue language.’

I just now started with tamil font. This will translate English doc to

Tamil using google translator http://translate.google.com/

Current Status:

*Now it gets .doc extension file from user and it converts to tamil pdf.

Need to changed as English pdf to Tamil pdf.

Note: It has many grammar mistakes while translating. and this is translated to tamil by http://translate.google.com/ Code was in github account : https://github.com/sathia27/Translate-script

If you like to start working in this code. You can take code form github acconut.

If you feel any good method other than this, Please give me suggestion.

Thank you in advance.
