Ema Utami . Writing Javanese Script in HTML using Unicode True Type Font and JawaTeX. International Journal of Computer Applications. 42, 12 ( March 2012), 16-20. DOI=10.5120/5744-7941
Since Javanese script is added into Unicode Standard in version 5. 2 at October 2009, there are opportunities to many applications using Javanese Unicode standard. Javanese typeface (font) also already developed according to Unicode standard. The problem using Javanese Unicode standard is not easy to write Javanese in computer media. Transliterator program named JawaTeX can perform transliterate from Latin to Javanese script. The JawaTeX program produces several documents: parsing document, TeX document and post script document as final document that can be port into pdf document. Web based JawaTeX also developed to produce image based Javanese script embedded on HTML. JawaTeX can be modified to produce HTML format based on Javanese Unicode. The HTML file is constructed by numeric character reference (NCR) associate to Javanese Unicode standard. Having Javanese Unicode HTML document is more portable and flexible. Using Unicode typeface and JawaTeX capability and NCR this paper will introduce a concept to build Javanese transliterator having HTML based file as an output.
