This package provides forms and macros for typesetting Inuktitut syllabics via XeLatex and Xetex.
Direct input is done via commands such as \pi, which direct to the corresponding Unicode symbol.
There is also a detailed explanation about the use of the NRC transcoder when starting with a roman text.
A sample Latex file ("event_words") and the resulting PDF output illustrate the various techniques.

There are samples, as well as links, of various syllabic fonts.

For the benefit of people not familiar with LaTex, the form contains the main commands (commented out)
at the start. In addition there are links and texts related to Latex in general.

To serve the needs of linguists there are links and material related to the use of Latex to
typeset IPA and other specialized symbols.
