Type Latvian in Windows® or on the Macintosh®
and have true cross-platform compatibility

LaserLatvian™ provides professional-quality, hinted, scalable LatvianLS™ fonts in plain, bold, italic, and bold-italic (except the Chancery-style, which is plain only) providing the Latin alphabet plus all the special characters and diacritics needed to type Latvian. The font also covers Norwegian and English. When you order LaserLatvian you receive both TrueType® and Type 1 (PostScript®) font formats. The LaserLatvian layout is keyed to the English keyboard but uses deadkey input for easy typing of the special Latvian characters. You can use LaserLatvian with all your standard applications and mix the LatvianLS font with other fonts in your files.

Available in six typestyles: Times®-, Helvetica®-, Palatino®-, Garamond-, Chancery-, or Courier®-style. All typestyles are provided in plain, bold, italic, and bold-italic styles, except the Chancery-style, which is plain only. See the samples, below.

LaserLatvian for Windows

Includes Keyboard Switcher, a keyboard driver providing both deadkey input and an alternate input method allowing up to four characters on every key. Comes with an Installation and Getting Started Manual, the LaserLatvian User's Manual and a paper keyboard layout chart.

There are two methods of input. With deadkey input you type the semicolon key and nothing happens. Then you type the next character and the accented character is input in the file. For example:

An alternate input method is direct input using the Ctrl and Alt keys. For example:

The fonts install into Microsoft® Windows XP, 2000, NT, Me, 98, 95, or 3.1x, and work with all Windows XP-, 2000-, NT-, Me-, 98-, 95- and 3.1x-compatible applications that allow the user to select fonts from a font menu. The Type 1 fonts require Adobe Type Manager® in Windows Me/98/95/3.1. The product includes a User's Manual, keyboard layout chart(s), and Character Code Tables showing every character in the font(s). The included Keyboard Switcher (keyboard driver) allows access to four characters per key (instead of the normal two) and alternate keyboard layouts. The fonts alone (without Keyboard Switcher) will install into Linux, but Linux users must provide alternate keyboard input for characters in the extended character set. These fonts will print to any printer at the highest quality allowed by your printer.
