I'm happy to announce a new version of the "packtranslit" bundle.
Transliteration and Unicode : we all need to transliterate text, but we used to have all sorts of problems with fonts. I have updated my "keyboards", which you can use to type transliteration in an easy way: download
Along those keyboards, I include "EgyptoSerif", a font with the characters needed for transliteration. You can also use Gentium, which is probably prettier (but lacks a few characters, like half brackets).
Note that the Mac version is more advanced than the Windows version, which I did not modify.
The new version includes:
- a revised set of keyboards, with explanations
- a revised version of EgyptoSerif (I fixed a problem with yod in one of the encodings).
EgyptoSerif is based on the "DejaVu" font. The main problem is probably that the font size is a bit too large. Feel free to use both the keyboard and the fonts, and to improve them if you want.
