== Unicode Editors ==
One of the major advantages of Unicode is platform independence. If an Operating System supports a [[Tibetan Input Method]] and is able to display complex scripts, all applications should be able to edit and display Tibetan text.


See [[Tibetan Unicode Installation]] on how to enable existing standard word processors (Microsoft Office or OpenOffice) for Tibetan.

For other platforms (e.g. older Windows versions), specialized Tibetan Editors have been created.
=== [http://udp.leighb.com UDP] - The Unicode Document Processor for Tibetan ===
UDP is a stand-alone document processing program that works with European, Tibetan, Dzongkha and many other languages in the Win/98/ME and Win/NT/2000/XP environments.
 
UDP reads a large number of legacy document and font formats and can convert them to [[Tibetan Unicode]].
 
UDP is one of the most useful tools to convert TibetDoc or RTF documents encoded in legacy fonts into standard [[Tibetan Unicode]]

=== [http://www.babelstone.co.uk/Software/BabelPad.html BabelPad] - Unicode Text Editor for Windows ===

== Legacy Font Formats ==
 
Legacy Editors were created before the [[Tibetan Unicode]] standard existed. During those times, proprietary font formats were the only way to edit texts in Tibetan fonts. Unfortunately a chaotic number of variants of proprietary encoding schemes for [[Tibetan Fonts]] was created in the early days of Tibetan text processing. A number of [[Font Conversion Programs]] address this problem.
 
=== [http://www.tibet.dk/tcc/tdoca.htm TibetDoc] ===
One of the earliest and most well known of the non-Unicode Tibetan text editors. TibetDoc and fonts from [http://www.tibet.dk/tcc TCC] are used in many productions of Tibetan texts. Since version 5.1 TibetDoc supports exporting to RTF / Unicode. (Tested with TibetDoc version 5.102.)
