LaserVietnamese® in Unicode™ provides
professional-quality, Unicode-encoded Vietnamese fonts in TrueType®
format. These Vietnamese fonts include all accents and special
diacritics used in the Vietnamese and Jarai/Rhade languages. Because the LaserVietnamese
in Unicode fonts include separate composite forms of each vowel with
each diacritic combination, every letter shape and diacritic is
perfectly positioned.

Top LaserVietnamese in
Unicode is available for both Windows and Macintosh
 LaserVietnamese

 LaserVietnamese in Unicode for Macintosh
LaserVietnamese
in Unicode for Windows
LaserVietnamese in Unicode for Windows includes seven keyboard
layouts that provide four-characters-per-key input in Windows 7, Vista, XP,
2000 and NT4. There are two keyboards optimized for
Vietnamese (one also supports Jarai/Rhade); three keyboards optimized for
Jarai/Rhade (one also supports Vietnamese); and two keyboards that support English
and the other supported Roman-based languages. Windows System Requirements:
| Operating Systems
|
Requires Windows 7, Vista,
Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows NT 4.0. |
|
|
| Applications
|
Requires any Unicode-compatible application, such as Microsoft Word
2010, 2007, 2003, 2002,
2000, or 97, InDesign CS, QuarkXPress 7.0,
LibreOffice, or
OpenOffice. (Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 is not
compatible.) |
|
Two of the keyboards (one for
Jarai-Rhade and one for English and other supported
Latin-languages) require Microsoft Word 2010, 2007, Word 2003,
or InDesign CS4,
since the keyboards make use of OpenType layout features
built into the fonts. Users who do not own these
applications,
or who must share documents with those who do not, may use
two alternate deadkey keyboards that fully support
Jarai-Rhade and Latin languages, using any
Unicode-compatible application. |
|
QuarkXPress 8.02 supports the
Jarai-Rhade keyboard OpenType keyboard, but does not support
the English OpenType keyboard. For Latin languages Quark
users will use the English deadkey keyboard. |
|
Older, non-Unicode applications such as
WordPerfect (tested through version 12), Quark XPress (through
6.5),
FrameMaker, and PageMaker are not Unicode-compatible. |
|
Only four keyboards are available in
Windows NT 4, since NT does not support either the Windows
Supplemental Language Support or the OpenType layout
features required by the other three keyboards. |
|
Microsoft PowerPoint 2003
(included in Microsoft Office 2003) is not compatible
with LaserVietnamese in Unicode for Windows. All text is changed to
the Arial font, whether typed with the keyboard, input using
Insert Symbol, or pasted from Word using the Windows
clipboard. PowerPoint users should type their text in Word
or another Unicode-compatible application, and save the text
as a graphic for import into PowerPoint. Users can also use
WordArt to create their text. To do this in PowerPoint go to
Insert, Picture, WordArt, and type your text, formatting it
as desired. Alternatively, users can type directly into
PowerPoint using our non-Unicode
LaserVietnamese fonts. (Earlier versions of PowerPoint
have not been tested for compatibility.) |

LaserVietnamese in Unicode for
Macintosh
LaserVietnamese in Unicode for Macintosh provides Unicode-encoded
fonts in TrueType format for use in OS X with any Unicode-compliant
application. Every diacritic is perfectly positioned because the fonts
include separate composite forms of each vowel with each diacritic
combination. The product includes eight keyboard layouts. Four
keyboards are optimized for Vietnamese (two also support Jarai/Rhade and one
supports Rhade), and
four keyboards are optimized for Jarai/Rhade.
Four of the keyboards also support English and the other supported
Latin-based languages.
Macintosh System Requirements:
| Operating Systems
|
Mac OS X |
|
| Applications
|
Any Unicode-compatible application. |
|
Two of the included keyboards (supporting
Jarai/Rhade) require Mellel, available separately,
or InDesign CS5. The other two
Jarai/Rhade keyboards are supported by any Unicode-compatible
application. |
|
The only Macintosh applications we are
aware of that support Unicode at this time are Microsoft Word 2011/2008/2004,
Mellel, InDesign CS, QuarkExpress 7.0 or newer,
OpenOffice, Pages, Nisus
Writer Express, TextEdit (included with Mac OS X), Oxygen, and BBEdit. We have
only tested the fonts in Word 2004, Mellel, Nisus Writer Express and TextEdit.
(If you are aware of additional applications please let
us know.)

For non-Unicode versions of these fonts, available for both Windows
and Macintosh, see:
The non-Unicode LaserVietnamese fonts are not interchangeable with
LaserVietnamese in Unicode. Both Unicode and non-Unicode fonts, including
Unicode and non-Unicode versions of LaserVietnamese, may be
installed on your system (since they have different file and font names)
and may even be used in the same files. They are not, however,
interchangeable.
To convert Word files typed with the
non-Unicode LaserVietnamese fonts, see the LaserVietnamese Converter.
Vietnamese users may also be interested in our
LaserRade, which supports the Radegain languages of
Vietnam.

Here's what others are saying about LaserVietnamese in Unicode:
"I want to compliment Linguist's Software on its Installation Manual
and User's Manual. They are by far the best written and the easiest to
understand of any software manuals I've seen in over 10 years."
