Sorry if I am repeating, but I do not seem to see my post here. Does anybody know of a Malayalam language package. I am working on a Mac running Leopard.

Thank you, I shall try that. Phonetic transliteration is helpful. It is easier for me. – Maclin Jul 15 '12 at 19:09

@VineetMenon: I think this should be posted as an answer. – Caramdir Jul 15 '12 at 21:12

This thread from TUGIndia Mailing list should help you in the right direction. And, here are a couple of references from a Google search:
- See this this package on CTAN.
- There's also this initiative by Government of India, funded by CTAN, working on Malayalam fonts; linked is the homepage for the project.
Typesetting Indic languages is still undergoing a lot of development. For instance, in case of Tamil language, see this TeX.SX thread.

the third link(http://sarovar.org/projects/malayalam) seems to be inactive. Instead, one can use https://www.ctan.org/pkg/malayalam-omega and fonts can be dowloaded from https://mathematicsschool.wordpress.com/2011/10/04/%E0%B4%A8%E0%B4%AE%E0%B5%81%E0%B4%95%E0%B5%8D%E0%B4%95%E0%B5%8D-%E0%B4%92%E0%B4%B0%E0%B5%81%E0%B4%AE%E0%B4%BF%E0%B4%9A%E0%B5%8D%E0%B4%9A%E0%B5%8D-%E0%B4%B2%E0%B5%87%E0%B4%9F%E0%B5%86%E0%B4%95%E0%B5%8D/ – Cyriac Antony Jul 05 '19 at 10:53
