International Korean Phonetic Alphabet - Its Application in MS Word
3.1 IKPA Batang (ikpabatang.ttf) has been designed to meet True Type
specifications, and as such installs easily onto most systems. For Windows, simply
extract the ikpabatang.ttf file from the most current release package, and copy it to a
temporary folder. In Windows Explorer, navigate to the directory "C:\Windows\Fonts"
directory. Click on "File" on the top of the screen, then "Install New Font" and in the
window that pops up, navigate to the directory with "ikpabatang.ttf" and select "IKPA
Batang (True Type)" and then click Install. OS X and Ubuntu require only that the font
file be placed into the fonts directory of the user's home directory. This is labeled
"Fonts" in OS X and ".fonts"
2
in Ubuntu.
3.2 Usage. When installed, select IKPA Batang in the font menu of any word
processor (except Hangul). Characters can be inserted using the system character map.
The font IKPA Batang must be selected, or else the characters will not appear on the
screen. There are currently plans to create a keyboard layout of IKPA and input editors
that will enable the user to type IKPA directly without using the character map for OS
X and Ubuntu, but there are no feasible methods for creation of input editors in
Windows XP or Vista at the moment.
3.3 IKPA Batang (ikpabatang.ttf) was created using FontForge which is available
for free from http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/. This program is quite capable of making
a commercial quality font, but the implementation of certain features, such as
2
".fonts" is a hidden directory. Before attempting to create the directory, use
Ctrl-h in Nautilus (or similar program) to view hidden directories to see if it is already
available for use.
