Khmer Unicode 2.0.1

Khmer Unicode is a font and encoding standard that enables the representation of the Khmer script in digital format. Developed by the Khmer Unicode team, this standard has enabled Khmer language users worldwide to create and share digital content in their native language without the need for complex workarounds or font conversions.

The Khmer script is used to write the official language of Cambodia and is also spoken in parts of Vietnam and Thailand. Prior to the development of Khmer Unicode, attempts had been made to represent Khmer text using non-standardized encodings and fonts. The result was a lack of consistency across platforms and difficulty in sharing content between different systems.

With the advent of Khmer Unicode, users can now type and display Khmer text correctly on any system that supports the standard. This has been particularly important for the development of online content such as web pages, emails, and social media posts.

Today, Khmer Unicode is widely adopted and supported across a variety of platforms including Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. It has played a significant role in preserving and promoting the use of the Khmer language in the digital age.
