Reading the site in Tibetan or Chinese
On the top right and bottom right of every page on this site, is a small set of links for getting English, Tibetan, or Chinese versions of the pages. (Due to limited resources, not all pages are completely translated; assistance is welcomed.)
If you have any Unicode Tibetan or Chinese font installed on your computer, you can read the Tibetan or Chinese pages. One place to get Tibetan font is http://tibetangeeks.com/downloads/bodyig/ Any of those fonts will work. Easiest one may be MSHimalaya – click on that folder and download the .ttf file. If you are using MS Windows, it should automatically ask and install the font.
Reading the site in other languages
On the bottom right of every page on this site, is a Google Translate menu. You can choose among many languages there. The translations are machine-generated, so not beautiful, but you will be able to get some sense of the content.
We will be happy to provide translated pages directly on the site, in any language, if someone can provide the translations.
