Articles on the English Wikipedia may contain words or texts written in different languages and scripts. To be able to correctly view and edit these articles requires that you have the appropriate fonts installed and to have correctly configured your operating system and browser. This guide will help you to do so.

យូនីកូដ កែប្រែ

Articles on Wikipedia are encoded using Unicode (specifically UTF-8)[១], an industry standard designed to allow text and symbols from all of the writing systems of the world to be consistently represented and manipulated by computers. Because UTF-8 is backwards compatible with ASCII, and most modern browsers have at least basic Unicode support, most users will experience little difficulty reading and editing Wikipedia.

For older browsers, MediaWiki, the Wikipedia software, serves the wikitext in a safe mode upon editing. Characters that cannot be represented in ASCII are temporarily converted to hexadecimal character references, looking like ሴ. Existing hexadecimal character references get an additional leading zero so they are not converted to actual characters when the page is saved, and look like ሴ. Likewise, to create a hexadecimal character reference in safe mode, not the character itself, a leading zero should be added. One can check whether safe mode is used by editing this section. If M looks like M rather than M, safe mode is used.

Font កែប្រែ

Most computers with Microsoft Windows, Apple's OS X and many Linux variants will already have fonts with support for Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and the International Phonetic Alphabet installed. Many mobile devices, such as the iPhone and iPad also include such fonts. Several historic and accented characters (used in the transliteration of foreign scripts) may be missing, though.

Microsoft fonts include:

Font Product Scripts
Arial Unicode MS [១]
  • Office 2000 (0.84)
  • Office 2003 (1.01)
Lucida Sans Unicode [២]
Tahoma [៣]
Microsoft Sans Serif [៤]
Arial Unicode MS
supports a wide number of scripts, but is of a slightly lower quality than Arial because it lacks kerning and is not smoothed. It contains a small bug which causes double-wide diacritics to be placed on the wrong characters.
Lucida Sans Unicode
has a slightly smaller character repertoire than that of Arial Unicode MS, but is more legible.
Tahoma
has a slightly smaller character repertoire than that of Arial Unicode MS, but is more legible.
Microsoft Sans Serif
has better support for historical and accented Latin characters. (Note that this is a different font than MS Sans Serif, a bitmapped font that shipped with older versions of Windows.)

Browsers កែប្រែ

Internet Explorer
supports Latin (however not all extended sets), Greek, Cyrillic, Arabic and Hebrew. Support for East Asian and some Indic scripts is available if support for this has been installed for Windows. As Internet Explorer will only use the default font for other scripts, those are usually not supported (unless the default font does).
Firefox
tries to render any character using all the fonts available on the system so multilingual support is generally good. The default rendering engine does not support complex script rendering, however. Some Linux distributions ship with a Pango-based rendering engine which does, this may currently cause some display glitches with justified text, though.
Opera
tries to render any character using all the fonts available on the system so multilingual support is also good.[២] Opera uses the operating system to perform contextual glyph selection, ligature forming, character stacking, combining character support and other character shaping tasks.[៣]
Chrome
Renders many, but not all characters... Does not render Oriya, Sinhala and Tibetan scripts from examples below, while Firefox doesn't render Sinhala only.

Syriac/Aramaic script កែប្រែ

Syriac and Aramaic scripts like most Semitic scripts flow from right-to-left which can cause letter to appear in the wrong order. The tag {{rtl-lang}} can be used to fix this issue.

In order to render the Serṭā (ទំព័រគំរូ:Script/Serto) and Estrangelo (ទំព័រគំរូ:Script/Strng) varieties, additional fonts are needed. This is supported by the following fonts:

Romanian កែប្រែ

The Romanian alphabet contains an S-comma (Ș ș) and T-comma (Ț ț). These characters were added to Unicode 3.0 at the request of the Romanian standardization institute. Font support for these characters is poor, so the Romanian Wikipedia represents these letters with an S-cedilla (Ş ş) and T-cedilla (Ţ ţ) instead.[៤]

  1. Until June 2005, when MediaWiki 1.5 came into use on the Wikimedia projects, articles on the English Wikipedia were encoded using ISO/IEC 8859-1 (although the additional characters from the Windows-1252 character set were used in practice.) All characters from the ISO/IEC 10646 Universal Character Set could be accessed through numerical entities, as specified by the HTML 4.01 specification. Since, nearly all pages have been converted to use Unicode directly.
