Thanks to the introduction of Unicode, recent Windows computers come ready-equipped with phonetic symbols. IPA charts in IPA Kiel, DejaVu Sans and Doulos, along with detailed descriptions of the symbols are available on the IPA chart page.Īcknowledgement: The IPA is grateful to John Wells for his advice and comments. IPA Kiel should not be used, as it is a legacy non-Unicode-compliant font. Neither Doulos SIL nor DejaVu Sans is required.
