Abstract

Introduction to Indic Scripts

Richard Ishida - World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)

Intended Audience: All
Session Level: Beginner

This paper begins by reviewing the special characteristics of 'indic' scripts, and then briefly examines some of the practical issues that should be borne in mind for Unicode-based implementation of these scripts. Scripts covered include Devanagari, Bengali, Gurmukhi, Gujarati, Oriya, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam.

This is a short tutorial aimed at providing a foundation for the talks that follow in the South Asian Scripts track.
