		ACIP to Robillard Font Conversion
			Version 1.0

			3/29/99



This program provides a simple graphical interface to pick an ACIP format
Tibetan file, and then run a conversion so it is viewable using the Robillard
Tibetan font.  This system uses a conversion algorithm specifically designed 
by Pierre Robillard for ACIP transliteration, and handles Tibetanized Sanskrit
(such as in mantras) much better than the standard Tibetan For Windows 1.2
converter.  This algorithm is currently being incorporated into the standard
TFW keyboard driver, so users can easily type mantras.  Check the TFW web site
( http://users.aol.com/tib4win ) for current availability info.

Because it uses 32 bit software libraries, this converter will run under 
Windows 95, 98 and NT, but not Windows 3.1.  The interactive keyboard driver 
is planned to run under Windows 3.1, 95 and 98.

May all beings have happiness!
