3. Unicode - युनिकोड Unicode - Benefits Reality:
Unicode is supported by the IT industry including Microsoft, Sun, IBM, Apple, HP and Oracle. To make documents more readable across platforms and machines, the Unicode specification was created and has been implemented in many systems.
Unicode - Benefits
1. User can continue to work in the same manner.
2. Unicode doesn’t play any role in pricing decisions. (We use softwares now Unicode compliant.)
3. Unicode is only a standard, not a software or technology.
4. Unicode based documents take a little extra space than the non-Unicode ones.

4. Unicode - युनिकोड
Unicode Encoding - An encoding system, like ASCII assigns a number to each letter, number or character. Operating systems include programs and fonts which convert these numbers to letters visible on screen.
Unicode, also known as UTF-8 or the "Universal Alphabet" is an ordered set of over a million characters. Systems recognize Unicode, can read and process data from many languages. Unicode was developed way back in 1990s. Unicode aims to transcend the limitations of traditional character encodings such as those defined by the ISO 8859 standard.
Many older Web sites were vendor specific and complicated. To view a Unicode document, a computer must have font installed includes characters for the script. Unicode fonts are two types - Arial Unicode MS (for Windows) and Lucida Unicode (Macintosh).

5. What is Unicode? युनिकोड म्हणजे काय?
Most-complete character-set.
The largest encoding scheme.
Supports major scripts and multi-lingual environments, supports mathematics, scientific symbols also.
Unicode ensures standardization for data use and storage. Being a 16 bit encoding standard, Unicode can represent 65,536 characters.
It is promoted by Unicode Consortium.
Unicode works across …
Hardware platforms (Desktops, Laptops, PDAs etc from various Manufacturer like Intel processor based PC, Apple Macintosh machine, AMD processor based PCs )
Operating Systems (Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD etc.)
Software programs (Unicode compliant)
Languages (Most of the world’s languages )
On Internet (All major browsers - Internet Explorer for Windows, Internet Explorer for Macintosh , Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera )

6. Languages Interoperability –
Unicode different scripts co-exist harmoniously in single document.
User can shift between languages/scripts without using separate software for each language. User can shift between languages even without changing the font.

7. Unicode Interoperability – Cross Hardware
I understand what
he is writing because
it is Unicode
PC with Intel Processor

8. Cross Operating System Operability
Windows XP
Apple Macintosh
Linux
BSD
Work on any operating system and take your work anywhere

9. Cross Browser Interoperability
They can all see text
written in Unicode

10. Unicode, Installation & Uses
Use of Unicode to Establish Marathi Language in Computer
कॉम्प्युटरवर मराठी टाईप करण्याकरता य़ुनिकोडचा वापर

11. Introduction: तोंडऒळख -
We were facing many problems while typing anything in regional languages other than English.
Solution for all these questions is Unicode.
We shall learn how to work with Unicode. ‘BarahaIME‘ is one of many Unicode softwares available on internet.
तोंडऒळख -
प्रादेशीक / स्थानिक भाषांमध्ये टाईप करताना अनेक समस्यांना सामोरे जावे लागते.
ह्या सर्व समस्यांवर य़ुनिकोड सहज व सोपा मार्ग आहे.
ह्याकरता बराहा सॉफ़्टवेअरचा वापर करता येऊ शकतो.

12. What is Unicode? य़ुनिकोड म्हणजे काय?
There is code for each character in computer. Different codes for single character were made which are changing according to software. If we make single code for single character, then it will minimize problems in typing. And this lead to discovery of Unicode system.
य़ुनिकोड म्हणजे काय?
कॉम्प्य़ुटरमध्ये वेगवेगळ्या सॉफ़्टवेअर मध्ये प्रत्येक अक्षराकरता वेगवेगळा कोड असतो. ह्यामुळे कॉम्प्युटर य़ुजरना वेगवेगळ्या समस्यांना सामोरे जावे लागते. कॉम्प्युटर वापरणे सुलभ व्हावे ह्याकरताच य़ुनिकोडचा जन्म झाला.
Now, Control panel window will be displayed on the screen.Select ‘Regional and Language’ option. Double click. You will get ‘Regional and language option’ window. Select Language option from it’s menu
कंट्रोल पॅनेलमध्ये "रिजनल ऍंड लॅंग्वेजेस" ऑप्शनमधील लॅंग्वेजेस वर क्लीक करा.

13. Regional Language Settings

14. You will get Add Input language window.
Select button in input language box so that it will give list of available regional languages. Select Marathi from that list.
इन्पुट लॅंग्वेजमध्ये मराठीवर क्लीक करा.

15. Again select keyboard layout option from ‘Add input language’ and select Marathi option from list, then click on OK
In Preferences - Follow Language Bar settings shown above

16. You have to remember key (shift + ctrl +0 ) in ‘switch to Marathi – Marathi’ option. For this, again you have to select key setting which will give ‘Advanced key setting’ window. Go to ‘Marathi – Marathi’ option, finally click on OK button, so that Marathi will be successfully installed using Unicode system in your computer
Now computer is ready to work with Marathi using Unicode.
There will be Language Bar on task bar of your computer. From that you will understand which language is active on computer.

17. We have to use Inscript Keyboard
We have to use Inscript Keyboard. In this method, it is necessary for us to learn typing. Keyboard layout is given below.
Alternative for this is BarahaIME software which includes phonetic keyboard and in script method. For Computer Users, in general, Phonetic keyboard is more easier than in script method. While using BARAH IME in Office 2007, use F11 - Function key for language change.

20. Google Translate

21. Google Translate
Google Translate is a free automatic translator. Google Translate currently supports translation between 57 languages (eg Afrikaans, Albanian, etc Available in Hindi but not for Marathi)
Translate text
To translate words and phrases, select your translation language and start typing. The translation result will appear instantly as you type. (PC be Javascript enabled )
Input text phonetically
Many languages are difficult to type as keyboard layout is complex for that script. While translating, as you type these languages as they sound in English - for example, "You" for "आप" in Hindi, when you press space, the word is being converted to Hindi script, and its translation will be displayed in the widow on right hand side.

22. Google Translate Translate entire web page
Google Translate is an easy way to translate whole document without the need for copying and pasting block of text. Click translate a document link and submit your file as a PDF, TXT, DOC, PPT, XLS or RTF. Original formatting may not be preserved.
The Google Translate Web Element allows you to instantly make your website available in other languages.

24. Google Transliterate – www.google.com /inputtools/cloud/try/
Google Transliteration converts Roman characters to their phonetic equivalent in desired language, this differs from translation. - It is the sound of the words that are converted from one alphabet to the other, not their meaning.
Transliteration is available for many languages (at present 23) . Transliteration is also available in Blogger, Gmail, Orkut.
Typing phonetically - Once you select your target language, start typing a word just the way it sounds in your language using English letters. Once you finish typing a word and hit the SPACE bar, the word will be converted to your local language script.

25. Google Transliterate – www.google.com /inputtools/cloud/try/
Correcting and editing words - In most cases, the transliterated word is correct. However, sometimes the transliteration may not be what you were looking for.
Switching between English and transliteration language - Pressing SHIFT + SPACE after a word (instead of SPACE) skips the transliteration of the previous word.
Using the dictionary - Google Transliteration has integrated with Google Dictionary to provide a convenient in-place method to look up word meanings across languages.
