XenoType Technologies is the first to provide
Unicode support for the unique Native American script used to
write the Cherokee language.
We’re proud to offer this product with the hope that it will
help preserve the Cherokee language. Most of the old Cherokee
script newspapers and publications are only available in specialized
research libraries which puts them outside the reach of the average
Cherokee student. But there is a strong need to preserve this
native heritage and Unicode is the best option for making these
rare texts available to the community at large.
Our standard Cherokee font has been completely reworked and is
still the best looking Cherokee font available. We’ve tried to
stay as true as possible to the original type designs while still
cleaning up some of its features and modernizing the overall look
and feel. We think we’ve come up with the ideal combination of
both worlds.
There are several other Cherokee fonts available from other vendors
but ours is the first to use Unicode and to provide a realistic
reproduction of the traditional Cherokee typeface. Several “modernized”
Cherokee fonts are adequate for many uses but if you want a traditional
look and feel for your Cherokee texts, this is your best option!
We will make the Cherokee Language Kit available
free of charge to any person or organization working to preserve
original Cherokee texts (contact
us here to find out if you qualify).
