Phonetics font

Does anyone have a link to a phonetics font?

I performed a Google search but didn' t find anything useful so far.

I could use the Symbol option in Word but that would be very time-consuming considering the amount of words I have to convert.

No idea what they are, but is this useful?

Which gives the following files:

No, I' ve tried those already. The font can be installed but they don' t convert properly at all. They' re of no use for me.

I don't understand - here is the direct link to the TTF from the page: http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/home/wells/ip769292.TTF

Why doesn't that work?

I can' t install it. And even if I could, the process of converting looks the same like Symbol, too time-consuming messed

Heres a zip file. Extract this into a temp directory. Now go into Control Panel and open up fonts.

Now open the temp directory window, and click and drag the fonts to the Fonts window. They'll be installed.

From the website:

quote:
The most useful phonetic symbols are mapped onto the keys of the ordinary keyboard. For example, if you type shift-D you get ð, while shift-C gives you ç; instead of the figure 2 you get ø and instead of the @ symbol you get a schwa. In this way you can immediately access all the symbols you need for the phonemic or broad-phonetic transcription of English, French, German, Spanish and many other languages.

These key assignments are based on the SAM-PA recommendations.
