It appears you already know how to type in Hindi using inscript keyboard. Then why using itrans package?
The input method developed originally by Velthuis is faulty. Because of that before running TeX it has to be postprocessed - because he used many restricted characters for inputing hindi characters. In this respect the Telugu TeX and Kannada TeX (which is based on Telugu TeX) input methods are better as they do not use these characters. Venu Gopal I use OpenOffice 3.0! Do you!!
