I don't know much about the Bengali BIble. If your wanting the 1867 version, I see no copyright issues.

Josh, is there a version of the 1867 Bengali Bible in Unicode Bengali font? I am trying to obtain a copy to build a Bengali Bible evangelistic website. I am the President of the Aletheia Project, an organization of students of Ambassador Baptist College in Lattimore, NC. We launch websites with Textus Receptus/Masoretic text translations. Learn more about us at www.aletheiaproject.com.

Unfortunately no, I don't have the 1867 Bengali Bible. I have permission from WBTC.org to convert their modern Bengali Bible to e-Sword. I also have the source files they gave me. I just lack an adequate understanding of that language and how to get from their source to e-Sword compatible unicode. Time is a factor as well, with everything else that goes on. I'm holding on to it for when that right person comes along who knows how to do it.

Here is a link for the Bengali Kitabul Muqaddas Bible for TheWord. This could probably be converted to e-Sword format.

Here is a sample of Matthew Chapter 1 of the Bengali WBTC New Testament, converted from Zefania xml, using BeST.

It seems to display perfectly in e-Sword 10, without using any rtf header.
