Myanmar (WwBurmese) Keyboard Downloads and Details

| manfisher | I just downloaded the Burmese WW font, but nothing I do will result in true Burmese text. Keyman keeps saying something about updating Uniscribe, but it doesn't do anything if I hit ok. Please help. |

| Andrew C. Keyboard Designer | My understanding is the WwBurmese font and keyboard use an 8-bit legacy encoding. It is not a Unicode solution, and does not use Uniscribe. Uniscribe is only needed for Myanmar Unicode 4.1/5.0 or Unicode 5.1 solutions.
I would expect Burmese text using WwBurmese, without the appropriate font selected to appear as a jumble of ASCII and Latin 1 characters. Andrew |
