LaserSalish for Windows

Professional-quality, hinted, scalable TrueType® and Type 1 fonts containing the entire character set for the following northwest Native American Salishan languages: Clallam, Coastal Salish, Coeur d'Alene, Columbian, Comox, Cowlitz, Flathead, Halkomelem, Interior Salish, Kalispel, Kootenai, Lillooet, Lower Chehalis, Lushootseed, Nooksack, Northern Straits, Okanagan, Pentlatch, Quinault, Seshelt, Shuswap, Snohomish, Squamish, Thompson, Tillamook, Twana, and Upper Chehalis. The font also contains English.

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.

Cost: US$ 99.95 for either LaserSalish (Times-style) or LaserSalish Sans Serif (Helvetica-style); $149.95 for LaserSalish Professional (both typestyles). Order

Here's what others are saying about LaserSalish:

"I recently purchased the LaserSalish for the Burke Museum. We have been tremendously satisfied with it. Since GIS programs can differ drastically from the typical (e.g., Microsoft, Adobe, etc.) programs, especially regarding data input, we were very pleasantly surprised how well the fonts worked with it."
