    Dear Krisnnaamma,
    Please download unicode font & you need unicode driver (e-kalappai).
    Once you instal them, with a little practice, you can type in tamil.
    Hope this helps.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    hi Rama mani,

    Its simple, click the link. It will download a software. Install it. Run it. An icon will come in the notification area (near the clock on ur Right hand side bottom). LEFT CLICK on it and click on UNICODE TAMIL and start typing. What ever u type will be in Tamil.

    To go back to English again LEFT CLICK and click on NO KEYMAN KEYBOARD.

    Hi Kitchuppa, krishnaamma, Chitra mam

    I accessed the link and installed e-kalappai. I tried using the same. I have some queries though:

    a) How to write 'I' i.e 9th vowel after ஏ?
    b) How to write 'OU' i.e. 12th vowel after ஓ?
    c) How to write 'nga' i.e. 2nd consonant after க்?
    d) How to write 'na' i.e the na used in the tamil word for 'ball'?
    e) How to write 'sri'?
    f) How to write 'ksha' ?

    I am planning to write a tamil invitation for my son's upcoming Upanayanam. So I am eager to learn the above. Any help from you would be appreciated.

    Regards
