|
|
Thank you for installing Keyman. Whether you're a new or returning user,
|
|
we believe you will appreciate the significant enhancements in this
|
|
latest version of Keyman.
|
|
|
|
## What is Keyman?
|
|
|
|
Keyman is a keyboard application that makes it easy for you to type in
|
|
your language in all your favourite Windows programs and across the Web.
|
|
Keyman is used by more than a million people to type in over 2000
|
|
languages and counting.
|
|
|
|
Keyman remaps your hardware keyboard to any one of hundreds of virtual
|
|
keyboards, available for download from the
|
|
[Keyman Website](https://keyman.com/keyboards) and around the Web. If
|
|
you cannot find a suitable keyboard for your language, the companion
|
|
application [Keyman Developer](https://keyman.com/developer/) is a
|
|
powerful software solution for creating the perfect Keyman keyboard to
|
|
suit your needs.
|
|
|
|
Keyman is completely free and open source. Development of Keyman is
|
|
supported by your donations and volunteers.

|
|
|
|
Keyman features seamless integration with your Windows operating system.
|
|
You can use Keyman keyboards with Keyman in almost any Windows or
|
|
Web application. Try it in office software like Word or Excel; browsers
|
|
like Chrome, Firefox, or Edge; design programs like Adobe InDesign; and
|
|
email services like Windows Mail, Outlook, or Gmail.
|
|
|
|
Keyman fully supports [Unicode](https://www.unicode.org/) and can be
|
|
used with all standard hardware keyboards, making it the perfect
|
|
solution for typing in any language on your computer.
