Updates Coming Soon

UPDATE: 06/28/2010 - A flash version of the Baybayin Transliteration Tutorial online tool is now available at: http://www.nordenx.com/baybayin/

Summer is coming up soon and I may have some free time to finish up some personal projects. I have cleaned up the current fonts and made them Unicode compliant, I shall package them up and release their updated versions along with a couple of new font sets. I have also been working on an online Baybayin transliteration tool using JavaScript (screen shot shown below):


I am planning on switching it to a Flash application instead. I have been working with a lot of Flash 9 and AS3 projects recently and am at the point where I am quite comfortable with its development environment. I also realize that Flash has more power & versatility that I am looking for; JavaScript can be very cumbersome. Expect this tool some time by the end of the year. ;)

Throughout the past few months, I received very positive email and comments about my fonts and efforts; my humble "thank you" to everyone. I also received quite a few request for help on how to render words in Baybayin. I love helping everyone out with all your requests and questions, so please don't hesitate to drop me an email when you need something Baybayin related.



Until then... please visit again on the next update. ^_^ Mabuhay!
