Myanmar Keyboard Layout for Unicode
5.1
This keyboard provides a smart keyboard layout for typing
Myanmar for use with fonts conforming to the Unicode
standard version 5.1.0. For example, you can use the font
Padauk.ttf.

You need to start Keyman (or SCIM/KMFL on Linux) if it is


not already started. You can then click on the Keyman icon
on the task bar and select the myWin2.2 Keyboard . To
type again in English, click on the Keyman icon again and
select “No Keyman Keyboard”.

Explanation
Old Myanmar fonts used to require several different
variations of some characters and other symbols. Most of
these are no longer necessary because the font itself
chooses the correct shape variant. This means there is no
longer any need to use control or alt sequences.

Stacked characters ပါဌ်ဆင့်

Stacked characters are typed by typing the normal forms


followed by the ` key - which is normally in the top left of
your keyboard. eg:

You always type the same key for each medial, it does not
matter whether the consonant is wide or small or what goes
above and below. Composite medials are typed as a
sequence of the individual medials.

Note: the medial is always typed after the consonant, this is


a change from before, when Yayit was typed before the
consonant.
