Guide to entering Unicode characters and combining diacritics in Aleph

This document describes how to enter Unicode characters in Aleph, including: precomposed characters (letter and diacritic together as a single Unicode character), special characters, and combining diacritics (used to modify a separate letter when a precomposed character is not available).

Please note : Always use a precomposed character if available; if a precomposed character is not available, enter a combining diacritic following the letter it modifies.

Characters may be entered via the Aleph floating keyboard or via direct entry of the appropriate Unicode value.

1. Aleph Floating Keyboard

• The floating keyboard is divided into tabs, with letters arranged in alphabetical order. There is also a tab for special characters, and a tab for combining diacritics. Combining diacritics are used only where there is no Unicode value for a precomposed character (letter with diacritic). • Call up the floating keyboard by choosing Activate Keyboard from the Options Menu in the Cataloging module, or selecting the keyboard icon on the upper right of the screen. • Place the cursor in the appropriate place in an Aleph record. • Select the appropriate character from the floating keyboard.

2. Unicode Mode (Direct Entry)

• Place the cursor in the appropriate place in an Aleph record. • Hit F11 to activate Unicode Mode. • Type the 4-character Unicode value for the selected character or combining diacritic (character is automatically pasted into record). • Hit F11 to exit Unicode Mode.

Unicode characters may also be assigned to keyboard equivalents through the Hotkey function in the MacroExpress software. Availability of this software and its Unicode characters file is contingent on both installation and support by the library’s local IT department. Please see the MacroExpress documentation on the Aleph Documentation Center for more information.
