We introduce the basic concepts needed to understand how writing systems and character encodings function, and how they work together. The intersection of the Unicode Standard and the International Phonetic Al- phabet is often not met without frustration by users. Nevertheless, thetwo standards have provided language researchers with a consistent computational architecture needed to process, publish and analyze data from many different languages. We bring to light common, but not always transparent, pitfalls that researchers face when working with Unicode and IPA. Our research uses quantitative methods to compare languages and uncover and clarify their phylogenetic relations. However, the majority of lexical data available from the world’s languages is in author- or document-specific orthogra- phies. -

Abstract This specification defines Cascading Style Sheets, level 2 revision 1 (CSS 2.1). CSS 2.1 is a style sheet language that allows authors and users to attach style (e.g., fonts and spacing) to structured documents (e.g., HTML documents and XML applications). By separating the presentation style of documents from the content of documents, CSS 2.1 simplifies Web authoring and site maintenance. CSS 2.1 builds on CSS2 [CSS2] which builds on CSS1 [CSS1]. It supports media- specific style sheets so that authors may tailor the presentation of their documents to visual browsers, aural devices, printers, braille devices, handheld devices, etc. It also supports content positioning, table layout, features for internationalization and some properties related to user interface. CSS 2.1 corrects a few errors in CSS2 (the most important being a new definition of the height/width of absolutely positioned elements, more influence for HTML's "style" attribute and a new calculation of the 'clip' property), and adds a few highly requested features which have already been widely implemented. -

The Brill Typeface User Guide & Complete List of Characters
The Brill Typeface User Guide & Complete List of Characters Version 2.06, October 31, 2014 Pim Rietbroek Preamble Few typefaces – if any – allow the user to access every Latin character, every IPA character, every diacritic, and to have these combine in a typographically satisfactory manner, in a range of styles (roman, italic, and more); even fewer add full support for Greek, both modern and ancient, with specialised characters that papyrologists and epigraphers need; not to mention coverage of the Slavic languages in the Cyrillic range. The Brill typeface aims to do just that, and to be a tool for all scholars in the humanities; for Brill’s authors and editors; for Brill’s staff and service providers; and finally, for anyone in need of this tool, as long as it is not used for any commercial gain.* There are several fonts in different styles, each of which has the same set of characters as all the others. The Unicode Standard is rigorously adhered to: there is no dependence on the Private Use Area (PUA), as it happens frequently in other fonts with regard to characters carrying rare diacritics or combinations of diacritics. Instead, all alphabetic characters can carry any diacritic or combination of diacritics, even stacked, with automatic correct positioning. This is made possible by the inclusion of all of Unicode’s combining characters and by the application of extensive OpenType Glyph Positioning programming. Credits The Brill fonts are an original design by John Hudson of Tiro Typeworks. Alice Savoie contributed to Brill bold and bold italic. The black-letter (‘Fraktur’) range of characters was made by Karsten Lücke. -
Unicode Cree Syllabics for Windows and Macintosh
Unicode Cree Syllabics for Windows and Macintosh 37th Algonquian Conference, Ottawa 2005 Bill Jancewicz SIL International and Naskapi Development Corporation ABSTRACT Submitted as an update to a presentation made at the 34th Algonquian Conference (Kingston). The ongoing development of the operating systems has included increased support for cross-platform use of Unicode syllabic script. Key improvements that were included in Macintosh's OS X.3 (Panther) operating system now allow direct keyboarding of Unicode characters by means of a user-defined input method. A summary and comparison of the available tools for handling Unicode on both Windows and Macintosh will be discussed. INTRODUCTION Since 1988 the author has been working in the Naskapi language at Kawawachikamach with the primary purpose of linguistic analysis and Bible translation, sponsored by Wycliffe Bible Translators and SIL International. Related work includes mother tongue translator training, Naskapi literature and curriculum development. Along with the language work the author also developed methods of production for Naskapi language materials in syllabic script by means of the computer. With the advent of high quality publishing capabilities in newer computers, procedures were updated to keep pace with the improving technology. With resources available from SIL International computer services department, a very satisfactory system of keyboarding syllabic texts in Naskapi was developed. At the urging of colleagues working in related languages, the system was expanded to include the wider inventory of standard Eastern and Western Cree syllabics. While this has pushed the limit of what is possible with the current technology, Unicode makes this practical. Note that the system originally developed for keyboarding Naskapi syllabics is similar but not identical to the Cree system, because of the unique local orthography in use at Kawawachikamach. -

We offer an overview of the field of language revitalization typeface design as it serves endangered and Indigenous languages in North typography America, and we identify a clear role for typeface designers in creating typefaces Unicode tailored to the needs of Indigenous languages and the communities who use them. endangered languages While cross-platform consistency and reliability are basic requirements that read- ers and writers of dominant world languages rightly take for granted, they are still only sporadically implemented for Indigenous languages whose speakers and writing systems have been subjected to sustained oppression and marginalization. We see considerable innovation and promise in this field, and are encouraged by collaborations between type designers and members of Indigenous communities. Our goal is to identify enduring challenges and draw attention to positive innova- tions, applications and grounds for hope in the development of typefaces by and with speakers and writers of Indigenous languages in North America. -

On Technology for Digitization of Romanian Historical Heritage Printed in the Cyrillic Script
Proceedings of the Conference on Mathematical Foundations of Informatics MFOI’2016, July 25-29, 2016, Chisinau, Republic of Moldova On Technology for Digitization of Romanian Historical Heritage Printed in the Cyrillic Script Svetlana Cojocaru, Lyudmila Burtseva, Constantin Ciubotaru, Alexandru Colesnicov, Valentina Demidova, Ludmila Malahov, Mircea Petic, Tudor Bumbu, Ștefan Ungur Abstract This paper describes the elaboration of the technology for digitization of the Romanian historical heritage printed in the Cyrillic script in the 17th–20th centuries. The attention is focused to transliteration of recognized Cyrillic texts to the modern Latin script, to difficulties with older alphabets that are not fully supported by modern OCR engines, and to other concomitant problems. We proposed solutions for these problems and integrated them into a corresponding technology and a tool pack that includes: alphabets, dictionaries, glyph patterns, transliteration and glyph restoration utilities, virtual keyboards, fonts, and user’s manual. Keywords: historical Romanian texts, OCR of Romanian Cyrillic scripts, 17th-20th century, software tools for OCR, transliteration utility. 1 Introduction Problem of digitization and conservation of historic, literary, and cultural treasures represents a domain of priority in the Digital Agenda for Europe. The EU admits the necessity of coordinated efforts in this domain and manifests vast actions to activate this process. These actions include development of the European Digital Library Europeana, supported by the European Parliament resolution on the 5th of May, 2010 and the adopted EU Programs for Culture. Diverse aspects of this problem were treated in many European research projects [1]. In particular, the problem © 2016 by S. Cojocaru, L. Burtseva, C. Ciubotaru, A.
