This is a simple Times Roman type of Font, but with the necessary<br />
diacritical marks for printing Sanskrit and Pali text. It is TTF format,<br />
and can be loaded using the normal Windows Control Icon Fonts manager.<br />

*  ACTUAL POSITION OF LETTERS *<br />
*******************************<br />
<br />
The keys are actually laid out to avoid using common letters, so that,<br />
if desired it can be used with other text too. In most cases there is an<br />
easy association between the key the letter is on and the letter itself.<br />
Alternatively you can use the more logically laid out WordPerfect for<br />
Windows Keyboard I also include, but the font can, of course, be used<br />
with any Windows application that can accept TrueType fonts.<br />
<br />
The keys they are on are:-<br />
<br />
a - @<br />
i - $<br />
u - #<br />
n (palatal) - ~<br />
t - {<br />
d - }<br />
n (cerebral) - %<br />
n (guttural) - <<br />
m - ><br />
r - =<br />
l - _<br />
h - *<br />
s (stroke above) - ^<br />
s (dot below) - &<br />
<br />
Capital Long A - [<br />
Capital Long U - ]<br />
Capital Long I - |<br />
Capital D with dot - \<br />
Capital T with dot - +<br />
Capital S with Stroke - /<br />
<br />
(I did these extra capital forms because Sanskrit and Pali sentences<br />
and names occasionally start with them.)<br />

*********************************************************<br />
<br />
You will find with the Sanskrit Keyboard the characters are allocated so<br />
that long vowels are found on th CTRL-letter, as are the characters with<br />
dots below (and m with dot above). The guttural n is found on the CTRL-K<br />
and the palatal n on the CTRL-C. (This is logical to any Sanskrit/Pali<br />
scholar.) Finally the s with stroke above is found on CTRL-Z, and the extra<br />
capital letters are found on the CTRL-SHIFT of the appropriate letter.<br />
