A Special Product for Typing all the Major Languages of Afghanistan!

A single package provides fonts for Pashto, Arabic, Persian (Farsi and Dari), Uzbek (Cyrillic), Tajik, and Türkmen (Roman and Cyrillic), plus all other major Cyrillic languages. 

TransAfghan is a special product that includes the complete contents of our LaserPashto, TransCyrillic (Times-style), and LaserTürkmen (Times-style) products, all for a discounted price. If purchased separately these three products would cost USD $299.85. Buy them in this combination product for only $179.95.

Languages covered by TransAfghan:

LaserTürkmen: Türkmen (Roman), English and Turkish, including the obsolete forms of the special Türkmen characters. The unique feature of this font is that the character positions have been adjusted to match the Cyrillic characters in our TransCyrillic for Windows fonts, also included in this TransAfghan product. Type the Türkmen text in Latin characters, select the text, and choose a TransCyrillic for Windows font from the font menu. The text will convert character-for-character to the Cyrillic alphabet.

TransAfghan for Windows

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.

Includes LaserPashto for Windows, TransCyrillic for Windows (Times-style) and LaserTürkmen for Windows (Times-style).

Cost: US$ 179.95 Order
