1. Copy help.keyman.com/developer/17.0/* into /developer/docs/help 2. Update references to 18.0 where appropriate 3. Copy all referenced images from /cdn/dev into /developer/docs/help/images and update links in documentation Next commit: add deployment to help-keyman-com.sh. Note: simplest way to test links at this point is to use the help.keyman.com auto deploy and wait for the PR on help.keyman.com to be validated; we could look at an internal link validation tool that verifies markdown links?

| Installing Custom Keyboards to your iPhone or iPad |
Overview
In version 10 of Keyman for iPhone and iPad, we added the ability to easily download custom keyboards to your iOS device.
Installing a custom keyboard
To install a custom keyboard, you will first need a link to the keyboard package on a website or in your email.
If you want to build and dev your own keyboard, you will need some technical skills for this, and can read our full step-by-step instructional on how to do this here.
Once you have a website or email with a link to the keyboard package, follow these steps on your iPhone or iPad to download and install the keyboard package into the Keyman for iPhone and iPad application:
Step 1) Click the link to your custom keyboard package file
The link in this example is for GFF Amharic 7 keyboard.
Safari will display an option to open the KMP file with Keyman
Step 2) Click Open in "Keyman"
Keyman for iPhone and iPad will parse the metadata in the package. If the keyboard package includes a "welcome.htm" file, this will be displayed at the confirmation to install the keyboard package
If "welcome.htm" is not included, a generic page with the package ID and package version will be shown.
Step 3) Click the top right "Install" button
The keyboard from the keyboard package is successfully installed!
All the keyboards in the package are installed as a group. In this example, the package only has the "GFF Amharic 7" keyboard, so it becomes the active keyboard
