[sword-devel] Bible in Myanmar

[David Haslam]

First just the conversion of the legacy font to Unicode, I’d like to think this could be done with TECkit

http://my.duniakitab.com/ThanLwinSoft/ThanLwinSoft/MyanmarUnicode/Conversion/TECkit.php

Looks like the old website of the late Keith Stribley has been rescued from oblivion.

IIRC, he died in 2011.

Best regards,

David
