![]() |
Welcome to LaserCambodian in Unicode for Windows and Macintosh (hereafter LaserCambodianU). This exciting product includes the CambodianLSU™ Unicode-encoded standard classical Cambodian typeface with all consonants, vowels and tone marks used in the modern Khmer language. The font is provided in plain (regular), bold, italic, and bold-italic styles in TrueType® OpenType™ format for Cambodian (Khmer) and English, plus other west European Latin-1 languages. This means you can type Cambodian and English (etc.) without changing fonts.
LaserCambodianU includes keyboard software allowing easy, logical input of Cambodian. It automatically positions vowels, tone marks, and other diacritics as you type. The product includes a phonetic software keyboard layout (keyboard driver or resource) with the Cambodian letters matched by sound as far as possible to the US keyboard. Keyboard support for English and other supported Latin languages is also provided.
See the CambodianLSU Keyboard Layout Chart in this pop-up.
LaserCambodianU for Windows and LaserCambodianU for Macintosh (which is still under construction) will be fully compatible with each other. Documents typed with these fonts may be transferred back and forth between Windows and Macintosh with no conversion necessary as long the fonts are installed on both computers, and compatible software is used. (Please be sure you understand the System Requirements for Windows and Macintosh before you order.)

LaserCambodian in Unicode for Windows
LaserCambodian in Unicode for Windows provides high-quality, Unicode-encoded Cambodian fonts (described above) in TrueType OpenType format for typing Cambodian (Khmer), plus English and other Latin-1 languages. LaserCambodian in Unicode for Windows includes two keyboard layouts that provide four-characters-per-key input (instead of the normal two) in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP.
The CambodianLSU keyboard layout is a transliterated (phonetic) keyboard arrangement, with the Cambodian letters matched by sound as far as possible to the US keyboard.
The EnglishLS OT keyboard layout allows the user to type English and other western Latin-based languages easily, in applications that support OpenType features for Latin. (This includes Microsoft Office 2013, 2010, 2007 and 2003, LibreOffice, and OpenOffice.org 3.0 and newer.) The user types a letter, then the accent, and the keyboard software adds the accent, perfectly positioned. This keyboard allows the user to toggle from the CambodianLSU keyboard into the EnglishLS OT keyboard and type English, French, German, Spanish, etc., without changing fonts.
