Keyman Engine for Web Developer FAQ
- Do you have a demonstration of KeymanWeb?
- Yes, at keymanweb.com
- If I need a new language, how do I get it?
- Tavultesoft will respond to requests for additional languages – we
have access to a large number of keyboard layouts that can be easily
modified to meet your needs; Keyman Developer also includes all the tools
you need to create keyboard layouts yourself.
- Will KeymanWeb work on all web sites?
- KeymanWeb will work on any Unicode-based web site that follows the HTML/XHTML standards.
- What are the steps to implement KeymanWeb?
- Download the source and follow the integration instructions on that site and in our full reference documentation.
- Will I need additional software or technical resources?
- No – KeymanWeb is straightforward to implement and we envision most
sites reaching a final implementation within a day or two. We
provide additional technical expertise for large sites requiring
more complex interactions.
- Which languages are not supported?
- KeymanWeb supports any language. Keyboards are available for over
600 languages right now. The full list of keyboards available today
is online at
keyman.com.
These are also all available on the KeymanWeb Live
site. If you require another language, please
contact us for information.
- Does KeymanWeb use ActiveX or Java?
- No. KeymanWeb runs entirely in JavaScript. No browser add-ons or plugins are required.
- What platforms has KeymanWeb been tested on?
- KeymanWeb is continually tested against current releases of
Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Safari, Mobile
Chrome, Mobile Safari, Mobile Internet Explorer, Opera and other
browsers. Backward compatibility functionality means that most
KeymanWeb functionality will degrade cleanly for older platforms.
- What about fonts?
- All modern browsers support font embedding, and KeymanWeb keyboards
can integrate fonts for these platforms.
- Can I modify existing keyboard layouts or create my own?
- Yes. You can create your own layouts from scratch with the Keyman Developer product.
