(Replying to an old thread) I found the scanned copy of first edition of Sathyavedapusthakam (Malayalam Bible used today) published in 1910 here: http://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/100116969
There is a copy here also: https://archive.org/details/Sathyavedapusthakam_1910 This clarifies any questions about copyright status of the text. The unicode text that we have now has lot of spelling mistakes and punctuation errors. So, I am working on proofreading the text. It will take a long time to complete the proofreading of the entire bible. So, can I create SWORD modules for the books that I complete part by part. What is the minimum books required? Should I wait till I complete the new testament to start the process ?
