<title>Readme file for the ICU LayoutEngine demo</title>
</head>
+
<body>
-<h2> What is the layout demo?</h2>
-The layout demo displays a paragraph of text that is laid out using the
-LayoutEngine. There are two versions of this demo, "layout.exe" which
-runs on Windows 2000, and "gnomelayout" which runs on Linux. Both
-programs read a file containing the Unicode text to display, and a file
-that says which font to use to display each script. <br>
-
-<h2> How do I build the layout demo?</h2>
-First, you need to build ICU, including the LayoutEngine.
-<p>On Windows, the layout project should be listed as a dependency of
-all, so layout will build when you build all. If it doesn't for some
-reason, just select the layout project in the project toolbar and build
-it. </p>
-<p>On Linux systems, you need to add the "--enable-layout=yes" option
-when you invoke the runConfigureICU script. When you've done that,
-layout should build when you do "make all install" </p>
-<p>To build the demo on Windows, just open the layout project in
-<icu>\source\samples\layout and build it.</p>
-<p>On Linux systems, connect to <top-build-dir>/samples/layout
-and do "make all" To build the layout demo on Linux, you'll need
-the gnome-libs-devel and freetype-devel packages, which should be part
-of your Linux distribution. The demo uses the FreeType 1 library, and
-the make files assume that the FreeType header files are in
-/usr/include/freetype1, and that the freetype library is
-/usr/lib/libttf.so. This is how RedHat Linux 7.2 installs FreeType 1. If
-your system is different, you may need to add sym links to where the
-files are stored on your system, or modify
-<top-src-dir>/samples/layout/Makefile.in to reference the files
-correctly for your system.<br>
- </p>
-<h2> How do I run the demo?</h2>
-Before you can run the demo, you'll need to get the fonts it uses. For
-legal reasons, we can't include these fonts with ICU, but you can
-download them from the web. To do this, you'll need access to a
-computer running Windows. Here's how to get the fonts:
-<p>Download the 1.3 version of the JDK from the<a
- href="http://www.ibm.com/java"> IBM developerWorks Java technology zone</a>
-page. From this page, follow the "Tools and products" link on the left
-hand side, and then the link for the "IBM Developer Kit for Linux", or
-the "IBM Developer Kit for Windows(R), Release 1.3.0". You'll need to
-register with them if you haven't downloaded before. Download and
-install the "Runtime Environment Package." You'll need one font from
-this package. If you've let the installer use it's defaults, the fonts
-will be in C:\Program Files\IBM\Java13\jre\lib\fonts. The file you want
-is "Thonburi.ttf" On Windows, copy this font file to your Fonts folder,
-on Linux, copy this font file to the directory from which you'll run
-the layout demo.</p>
-<p>Next is the Hindi font. Go to the NCST site and download <a
- href="http://rohini.ncst.ernet.in/indix/download/font/raghu.ttf">
-raghu.ttf</a>. Be sure to look at the <a
- href="http://rohini.ncst.ernet.in/indix/download/font/README"> README</a>
-file before you download the font. On Linux, you can download raghu.ttf
-into the directory from which you'll run the layout demo. On Windows,
-you'll need to install it in your Fonts folder.</p>
-<p>There's still one more font to get, the Code2000 Unicode font.Go to
-James Kass' <a href="http://home.att.net/%7Ejameskass/">Unicode
-Support In Your Browser</a> page and click on the link that says "Click
-Here to download Code2000 shareware demo Unicode font." This will
-download a .ZIP file which contains CODE2000.TTF and CODE2000.HTM.
-Expand this .ZIP file. If you're going to run the layout demo on Linux,
-put the CODE2000.TTF file in the directory from which you'll run the
-demo. On Windows, copy the font to your fonts folder.</p>
-<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Note:</span> The Code2000 font is
-shareware. If you want to use it for longer than a trial period, you
-should send a shareware fee to James. Directions for how to do this are
-in CODE2000.HTM.</p>
-<p>That's it! Now all you have to do is run letest (CTRL+F5 in Visual
-C++, or "./gnomelayout" in Linux) </p>
-<h2> How can I customize the layout demo?</h2>
-The text that the layout demo displays is read from the file
-"Sample.txt." You can change the text by editing this file using a
-Unicode-aware text editor. (it is in UTF8 format with a BOM as the first
-character; the demo can also read UTF16 and UTF32 format files)
-Remember that the text will be displayed in a single paragraph; you can
-include CR and LF characters in the text, but they will be ignored.
-<p>If you add scripts to the text other than Arabic, Devanagari, Latin
-or Thai, you'll need to find a font which contains the characters in
-that script, and add an entry to the FontMap file ("FontMap.GDI" on
-Windows, "FontMap.Gnome" on Linux) This file contains a single entry per
-line. Each entry contains a script name followed by a colon, and then a
-font name. </p>
-<p>Here is the list of legal script names: </p>
-<blockquote><tt>ARABIC</tt> <br>
- <tt>ARMENIAN</tt> <br>
- <tt>BENGALI</tt> <br>

-You can also use the script name "DEFAULT" to represent all scripts
-which you don't explicitly list in the FontMap file.<br>
-<br>
-On Windows use the full name of the font as it appears in the Windows
-Fonts folder (eg. "Times New Roman") On Linux, use the file name of the
-font file (e.g. "Times.TTF") If you're running on Windows, you'll need
-to install the new fonts in your Fonts folder. If you're running on
-Linux, put them in the directory from which you'll run the demo. <br>

+ click on the link for the Courier Thai font. This will download a .ZIP file.
+ Extract the Courpro.ttf font. On Windows, copy this font file to your
+ Fonts folder (note the name of the font after it is installed), on Linux, copy this font file to the directory from which
+ you'll run the layout demo.</p>
+
+ <p>Next is the Hindi font. Download the font from <a href=
+ "http://www.ffonts.net/Raghindi.font.download">Raghindi</a>. On Linux, you can download the font into the

+ it for longer than a trial period, you should send a shareware fee to James.
+ Directions for how to do this are in CODE2000.HTM.</p>
+
+ <p>Be sure that your FontMap.GDI (on Windows) or FontMap.Gnome file (on Linux) contains accurate
+ font names for each script type. For example, the following is a valid FontMap.GDI (assuming you have the correct fonts):
+ <br><br>DEVANAGARI: Raghindi<br>THAI: Courier MonoThai<br>DEFAULT: Code2000<br><br>Note that only the Code2000 default font is strictly necessary,
+ and that the other two can simply be commented out by a '#' if you do not wish to use them.</p>
+
+ <p>Also note that the FontMap and the sample.txt files have to be in the same directory as the layout executable.</p>
+
+ <p>That's it! Now all you have to do is run letest (CTRL+F5 in Visual C++, or
