Thank you for all the replies.

I’m using FOP Version 0.95.  I use MS word 2003 as the RTF viewer and Acrobat 7 as the PDF viewer (in Windows XP SP3).

Herewith I have attached the input files (there are some Bengali characters which you may need Bengali Unicode support)
Thank you again.

IIRC Bengali has letter combinations where the second letter is
rendered to the upper left of the first. FOP doesn't now about
this kind of placement, it puts these characters in the same
order (and baseline alignment) into the result as they were
in the XMLFO source. Apparently the RTF renderer you used
did know how to render these letters correctly, while your
PDF viewer didn't. What tool did you use to view the PDF
and the RTF? (MS Word on XP or later is known to be good enough
for CTL for Bengali)
