[XeTeX] trying to enable grantha script with teckit

[François Patte]

Bonjour,

I tried to use the unicode grantha fonts to typeset sanskrit in grantha
characters.

I hacked the file velthuis-sanskrit.map and changed the unicode values
of each characters then compiled the result.

I tried this on a file coded according to the Velthuis scheme for
sanskrit and.... this does not work; looking at the log file I get this
line for every letter in the source file:

 Missing character: There is no a in font Noto Serif Grantha
Regular/OT:language
=dflt;!
etc.

What am I missing?

Thank you.
