To obtain the fonts necessary for supporting Romanized Sanskrit and Pali, you should download and install the file at http://udp.leighb.com/csxplus.exe - (1.1 MB). Some fonts contain only some of the glyphs necessary for these diacriticals; this package will supply any missing glyphs. This free package also provides a basic Tibetan 8-bit font: Tibetan Modern A; and an excellent Tibetan Unicode font: Jomolhari.

To obtain free, high quality Tibetan fonts, please go to http://iris.lib.virginia.edu/tibet/tools/fonts.html and download and install the Tibetan Machine Uni, TibetanMachine and TibetanMachineWeb fonts. The first one is the current best Unicode Tibetan font; the other two are 8-bit fonts which UDP can use, rather than Unicode, since Windows is not quite ready for Unicode Tibetan. There are additional Unicode Tibetan fonts and you might want to obtain these fonts as well:

• Jomolhari from http://www.btinternet.com/~c.fynn/tibetan/fonts/jomolhari.html
  (if you don't want to load the csxplus package mentioned above)
• TCRC Youtso Unicode from http://www.popdict.com/dict_tibetan.htm
• Joyig, Tashi & Uchen from http://dzongkha.sourceforge.net/
• Tibetan Unicode from http://yudit.org/download/fonts/utibetan.ttf
• TibetanUchen at http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/fonts_windows.html#tibetan

To support other languages, you will need Unicode fonts. Most Western European languages are supported by the standard Arial, Times New Roman, Courier New and particularly by Lucida Sans Unicode, all which come with Windows. Unicode fonts for other languages can be found on the internet in places like

• http://www.slovo.info/unifonts.htm
• http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/fonts.html#general
• http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=Gentium_download

Code2000 is a very complete large Unicode font that is shareware and well worth the $5.00 price tag if you are seeking a font that supports a huge number of code blocks (Mayanmar, Ethiopic, Cherokee, Runic, Khmer, and many others). Download it from http://www.code2000.net/ and don't forget to sent James the $5.00.

If you can obtain Arial Unicode MS, it also provides a huge number of code blocks - but Microsoft apparently no longer makes it freely available; however, it does come with some of Microsoft's products. If you have MS Office, you can install this font from the Office setup program as follows:

• After entering your info and key, on the page which says "Install Now", choose Custom and click Next
• Uncheck all the checkboxes except Microsoft Word
• Click "Choose detailed installation options for each application" and click Next
• Click the plus sign next to Office Shared Features
• Click the plus sign next to International Support
• Click the box to the left of Universal Font
• Click Run from My Computer
• (you can change other installation options at this same time if you wish)
• Click Next and finish the install process as you normally would.
