How do I type long vowels?

Double the vowel letter, so aa gives ଆ, ii gives ଈ and uu gives ଊ.

How do I get the retroflex letters?

Use capital letters: T is ଟ, D is ଡ and N is ଣ, while lowercase gives the dental sounds.

Is this transliteration or translation?

It is transliteration: it converts the sounds you type into Odia script and does not translate the meaning.

Type Odia words spelled in English letters and they turn into Odia (ଓଡ଼ିଆ) script as you type. For example, namaste becomes ନମସ୍ତେ.

This is transliteration (by sound), not translation. Type the Odia words themselves in English letters, not an English sentence. Typing an English phrase such as "my name is" only spells those English sounds in Odia script, it does not translate the meaning.
