Hi, as Sovatha said the keyboard layout is broken. I'm still using Windows XP and know the khmer Unicode keyboard by heart. But when I could find a Windows Vista keyboard layout in PDF format on the internet, I was disappointed to see that many letters and diacritics are not on the same keys, meaning that the day I'll shift to Windows Vista or Seven I'll need to learn the keyboard again. I regret this lack of unity. Moreover, where is the invisible space (ចន្លោះ​មើល​មិន​ឃើញ) on this new keyboard? If anyone could give an answer, I'd really appreciate!

I have Office 2007. Just changed to Windows 7. Downloaded Khmer Unicode with LIPs and NIDA... whatever needed to type Khmer font. But no response when typing the font, after changing the keyboard to KH.
Please help.

in your typing application (office 2007), try to change the font to Khmer OS or any Khmer font that you have install in your computer first before start typing.

Thanks for your reply.
Yes I did all that. When I used Windows XP everything worked well. I write in Khmer a lot doing newsletters. Since the change to Windows 7 I have not been able to type Khmer. It just does not respond to the typing. I also tried to use the trial version of Office365 to see if it helps. It does not.
Do hope you can help. Thank you.

hmmm... i'll need more information regarding the issue. In term of not respond, when you're typing, nothing appear at all? or you see boxes? or the application you are using froze?.... Windows 7 shouldn't having this issue at all since its come with Khmer Unicode pre installed. I never encounter the problem before with windows 7, but i will look into the issue and let u know if there is an alternative solution.

Thanks again for your reply.
When typing, the cursor doesn't move at all, no boxes, nothing.
I have used the Khmer fonts for a long time now since Phnom Penh in Mac. As I can only use and not fix any problem, I'm stuck. Would I have misplaced something, like LIPs in the wrong place? I have the person setting up Windows 7 for me but he doesn't know much about foreign fonts. I do appreciate your help so much. Do hope you can find a solution for me. Thank you vary much.

Hello Khmer Unicode, I do thank you for taking the time to try to help me. I'd like to let you know I fixed the typing problem. It was in the language setting- 'Change System Locale' I changed it to Catalan. And I could type Khmer OS System, but not the fonts that came with Windows 7. However, the keyboard is different. Can you please direct me to new Unicode keyboard? Thank you. My email: munthacrowe@gmail.com
Thank you very much.

Thank you Khmer Unicode for your patience. I have been able to type all the fonts. Only that when changing from one font to another, you need to change back and forth from CA to KH once or twice. Occasionally, no response, but after deleting one character and type again, then it works. Thanks again.
