Avro Keyboard

Avro Keyboard for Windows is a Unicode and ANSI-compliant Free Bengali typing software and spell checker. It was first published on the 26th March 2003 and is the first software of its kind. It comes with many additional features and is provided in a standard installer edition and a portable edition for Windows.    The software has a customizable mode for a large field of compatibility. Users have full access to all popular Bengali typing methods, such as phonetic typing, mouse typing, and traditional fixed keyboard-based typing. The spell checking feature is also favored with spell check on the fly (for phonetic typing) and a spell checker plugin for Microsoft Word.   The portable edition (also free) was released later and did not need any installation or access as an administrator. It is also suitable to carry in portable media (such as a USB drive) and has a built-in 'automatic virtual font installer.'   Avro Keyboard has been certified as clean from all spyware, adware, and viruses and additionally has been added to the online solution directory of Microsoft for Indic language input.
