Cameroon Characters Unicode 5.0 Keyman (All Versions) with QWERTY Keyboard

This chart describes the keystrokes used in Tavultesoft Keyman with Unicode 5.0 Cameroon

Characters and the US (QWERTY) Keyboard.

Use the semicolon (;) for the Cam key and the colon (:) for the special (Spcl) key. Open the

document but before typing select a font style from one of: Doulos SIL or Charis SIL . From the

Keyman icon in the System Tray (bottom right of screen) select the Cameroon Unicode

Keyboard.

A non-combining version of any tone/diacritic marker may be inserted by itself into a text by

typing the desired tone or diacriti c key, followed by '+'. Note that this feature is not available

for the four complex tones, dot-under, or tilde-under.

The Unicode version of Cameroon Characters is ultimately designed to work with any Unicode

font, although the character ' ' is currently* only in the PUA (Personal Use Area) of the SIL

Unicode font family.

When adding nasal or tone diacritics, the typing sequence is always: Nasal (
))) ̧̧̧ ̧ ) + Tone ( ˋˋˋ ˊˊˊ

ˆ ¯ etc.) + Vowel.

Note: Unicode fonts have a much larger leading (space between the lines) than non-Unicode

fonts. In Microsoft Word or Publisher you can change the line spacing to Multiple .75.

*As of Mar 2007 – Unicode 5.0
