  1. Download and Install the new font on your PC. Close Excel (if it's not already closed), then open Excel. The new font should now appear on the list. With thaifonts.org, most of the fonts are pirated, depriving their creators of revenue. A legal alternative is https://fonts.google.com/?subset=thai
  2. Spot on! Thanks for alerting me to this. It looks like the fix I put in for "Reading Sentences" broke "Reading Words". Both should now be working correctly, though you may need to do Ctrl-F5 on the second page for each of these (but only the first time). The Reading Words second page does seem to be loading strangely slowly, so you may need to wait a few seconds to actually see the words.
  3. Could you please post the console log for the first page, https://thai-notes.com/reading/lesson22.html That's where I believe the problem was. (That page passes data to the second page. It was the passing of data that had stopped working. The error on the second page which you've provided talks about "read properties of null". The data are null because they weren't passed from the first page. The log should look like this: ResponsiveVoice r1.8.3 responsivevoice.js?key=vh25OFgw:340 isHidden: false responsivevoice.js?key=vh25OFgw:341 Prerender: false responsivevoice.js?key=vh25OFgw:402 Configuring readloader-0.js:243 Version 1.3.0 responsivevoice.js?key=vh25OFgw:144 RV: Voice support read The key text is "Version 1.3.0". If it's missing, it's definitely a caching problem - either with your browser (most probable) or with your ISP (pretty unlikely, but possible). Incidentally, Incognito Mode does use caching, but the cache is cleared when you end the Incognito Mode session. May be worth closing your browser, reopening it and start another Incognito Mode session and trying again. Fingers crossed.
  4. Not work in progress. They've been around for a few years. What I've done (and I should have done yesterday) is update the version number. When the page loads it's displayed briefly in the bottom left of the screen. (It's also written to the console log.) If this is displaying as 1.3.0, then I think everything should be working OK. (At least it works OK for me on the four browsers I've tested.) If it's less than this, then there's a problem with your browser cache. (Cloudflare is caching the correct version. I've checked.) As for "thanks to you and the others that have made this possible", the entire site (with the exception of the FSI language course) is all my own work.
  5. TH SarabunPSK However, that information is not going to help you. It's not a font problem, it's an Adobe problem. Your best bet is to save the document as an image. (There are websites that will do .pdf to .jpg conversion for free.) Then upload the image to Google Drive and open the image with Google Docs.
  6. It doesn't. It uses the web interface which is why it is opened in a new page. The text to be translated is part of the URL. Thanks for your concern.
  7. The problem with the "Reading Sentences" pages in the Reading Course is now fixed. However, you may need to do a hard reload on the page with the "Read" buttons (not on the page that is opened when you click "Read" button). That's Ctrl+F5 in Chrome, Opera and Firefox and Option + Command + E in Safari.
  8. Not sure what's changed. It's not immediately apparent what the problem is. I'll look into it.
  9. Temporary glitch. Should be working now. Sorry about that.
  10. According to your link you have to have Permanent Residence to do that - a non-starter for most foreigners living here.
  11. True. But you're ignoring the fact that the fund fees are typically for an institutional class, so are less than a normal retail investor would pay. Plus you don't have FX charges and inconvenience to worry about if your wealth is in THB (as the OP's is). FIFs are not perfect, but then they're not disastrous, either. For some people they're the right solution.
  12. The banks' asset management companies typically only offer their own mutual funds. If you use a full service broker you have access to the funds of around 19 different asset management companies in Thailand, including their FIFs. Offshore brokers are pretty terrible for funds. Interactive Brokers has offshore funds, but I'm not eligible to purchase any of them. (I'm not American.) Swissquote has a fairly wide range, around 20,000 funds, but the fees are high and the individual funds are not particularly attractive, and few are GBP-denominated (my preferred currency). Saxo Singapore offers only around 500 funds.
  13. I suspect there would be issues funding an account and making withdrawals. They don't accept THB.
