Abstract
We have designed special IPA characters for IPA phonemic transcriptions of the following languages: E[nglish—RP and GA], F[rench], G[erman], I[talian], P[olish], R[ussian], Sp[anish] and Sw[edish], using two different programs which can be run under MS-DOS (BIOS) on an IBM PC or compatible. One, the ChiWriter—henceforth CH—is a complete word processor whilst the other, the LETTRIX—henceforth L—has to be combined with a word processor, such as WordStar, which we have used. In either case, we have designed our characters for a 9-pin dot-matrix printer, though CH also allows font design for a 24-pin or a laser printer. A Quality option has to be chosen, which reduces the printing speed by a factor of two with L and four with CH.
