raslin Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Can any one help please? I would like to modify an English TTF to add some tone accents to use with English transliterations. Is there a simple bit of freeware to do this? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May you google for Bitstream Softwarer and you'll get a lot different sites incl. some freeware I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Start --> Run -> 'charmap.exe') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raslin Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 I don't think Eye Browse from Bitstream will do it. What I need is four new characters for low, rising,high and falling tones over the vowels. Ordinary Thai/English fonts don't do these. Thanks anyway.

Roger Roger, take a look at the following Websites/Programs: http://www.high-logic.com/ http://www.fontlab.com/ http://websitetips.com/fonts/tools/#convert If there isn't anything you can use, google for Font Editing Software. I don't use Google but Copernic which gives me more precise infos. Cheers. Edited January 7, 2008 by Reimar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Reimar Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Veazer, the OP is not looking accents or so, the Tone signs are much different. So he need to edit the required fonts and change to what he need. That kind of fonts are not freeware and quite expensive to buy. Cheesr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
