=========================================
|
||||
|
||||
(see FONTLOG.txt for information on the Psf Test family)
|
||||
|
||||
Thank you for your interest in Andika ("Write!" in Swahili), a
|
||||
Unicode-compliant sans serif font designed by SIL International
|
||||
primarily for literacy use.
|
||||
|
||||
Andika supports a wide range of Latin and Cyrillic characters.
|
||||
Documentation for the font is available on Andika website
|
||||
(https://software.sil.org/andika), including details on what ranges are
|
||||
supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Andika is released under the SIL Open Font License.
|
||||
|
||||
See the OFL and OFL-FAQ for details of the SIL Open Font License.
|
||||
See the FONTLOG for information on this and previous releases.
|
||||
See the website (https://software.sil.org/andika) for further documentation.
|
||||

|
||||
asked questions and their answers.

TIPS
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
As this font is distributed at no cost, we are unable to provide a
|
||||
commercial level of personal technical support. The font has, however,
|
||||
been through some testing on various platforms to be sure it works in most
|
||||
situations. In particular, it has been tested and shown to work on Windows
|
||||
XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. Graphite capabilities have been tested
|
||||
on Graphite-supported platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do find a problem, please do report it to andika@sil.org.
|
||||
We can't guarantee any direct response, but will try to fix reported bugs in
|
||||
future versions. Make sure you read through the
|
||||
SIL Unicode Roman FAQ (https://scripts.sil.org/ComplexRomanFontFAQ).
|
||||
|
||||
Many problems can be solved, or at least explained, through an understanding
|
||||
of the encoding and use of the fonts. Here are some basic hints:
|
||||
|
||||
Encoding:
|
||||
The fonts are encoded according to Unicode, so your application must support
|
||||
Unicode text in order to access letters other than the standard alphabet.
|
||||
Most Windows applications provide basic Unicode support. You will, however,
|
||||
need some way of entering Unicode text into your document.
|
||||
|
||||
Keyboarding:
|
||||
Andika does not include any keyboarding helps or utilities. It uses the
|
||||
built-in keyboards of the operating system. You will need to install the
|
||||
appropriate keyboard and input method for the characters of the language you
|
||||
wish to use. If you want to enter characters that are not supported by any
|
||||
system keyboard, the Keyman program (www.tavultesoft.com) can be helpful
|
||||
on Windows systems. Also available for Windows is MSKLC
|
||||
(https://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/tools/msklc.mspx).
|
||||
For other platforms, KMFL (https://kmfl.sourceforge.net/),
|
||||
XKB (https://www.x.org/wiki/XKB) or Ukelele (https://scripts.sil.org/ukelele)
|
||||
can be helpful.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to enter characters that are not supported by any system
|
||||
keyboard, and to access the full Unicode range, we suggest you use
|
||||
gucharmap, kcharselect on Ubuntu or similar software.
|
||||
|
||||
Another method of entering some symbols is provided by a few applications such
|
||||
as Adobe InDesign or OpenOffice.org. They can display a glyph palette or input
|
||||
dialog that shows all the glyphs (symbols) in a font and allow you to enter
|
||||
them by clicking on the glyph you want.
|
||||
|
||||
Rendering:
|
||||
This font is designed to work with Graphite or Opentype advanced font
|
||||
technologies. To take advantage of the advanced typographic
|
||||
capabilities of this font, you must be using applications that provide an
|
||||
adequate level of support for Graphite or OpenType. See "Applications
|
||||
that provide an adequate level of support for SIL Unicode Roman fonts"
|
||||
(https://scripts.sil.org/Complex_AdLvSup).
