Khmer Unicode

សូម​ស្វាគមន៍​ការ​មក​ដល់​គេហទំព័រ​របស់​យើង​ខ្ញុំ!

Can you see above sentence in Khmer letter?

If not, you must see them as a long line of question marks ????????????????? or maybe a line of boxes, which means your computer doesn't have Khmer Unicode installed!!!

Windows Vista has built-in Khmer Unicode font "Daun Penh."

But if your operating system is Windows XP or other versions of Windows, or if you want to use Khmer Unicode which has keyboard layout similar to Limon fonts, please download it here:

Download: Khmer Unicode 1.2.5


Note: In Windows Vista, the default Khmer Unicode font appears very small in Internet Explorer, Opera, and Google Chrome because the default font for Khmer Unicode is Daun Penh, which is smaller than Khmer OS fonts. However, I don't see this problem in Firefox browser. The font appears big enough in Firefox

Hey, I can't see the writing in Khmer, cos it is too small. I can barely read it.

yes, I also experience this problem in windows vista for Opera and Internet Explorer, but if you view this blog in Firefox, it will be ok.

We have many resources on learning Khmer at Khmercity.net, including Khmer unicode and books entirely in Khmer.
