Thai (Siamese) look-alike font with English (Latin) characters:<br />
                         "AW_Siam English not Thai"<br />
<br />
                                  <br />
Download the font for Windows from http://www.weygandt.de/aw_siam.zip (a<br />
TrueType and a PostScript Type 1 font)<br />

WHY?<br />
<br />
I saw a sign in the movie street fighter (van Damme) that looked like<br />
written with a typical Thai font but when I had a closer look, the signs<br />
were written in English (Latin) characters. No one had it so I made it. And<br />
this is it. I guess I'd have to class this as an unfinished version as some<br />
characters should have a lot more attention but for now I was more<br />
interested in some of the other stuff.<br />
<br />
Thanks to Jos Flachs in Bangkok for his expert suggestions. Without him,<br />
the font would be half as good.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

INSTALLATION<br />
<br />
   * To install, simply copy the "aw_siam.ttf" file to the windows fonts<br />
     folder (normally C:\WINDOWS\FONTS). Make sure that the kerning is on -<br />
     in MS Word default is off.<br />
     Postscript Font: When you use postscript fonts you know how to install<br />
     them.<br />
     Mac: I don't know.<br />
   * To remove simply delete the "aw_siam.ttf" file from the fonts folder,<br />
     but why you want to do this is beyond my comprehension.<br />
<br />
