A couple of articles in *.DOC format linked at:
http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/home/wells/
on John Wells' web site are interesting. They are about using
the auto-correct feature of Word to input IPA. See the links
under "Research" for Eureka and Eureka-IPA.

Here is an actual layout for IPA UTF-8 entry:

This page has graphics showing the Mac-IPA layout:
