UBC INDIC
Those who wish to have the advantage of disk (b) can use the numbers in the
third keyboard of Geneva or New York fonts, if the notes to be numbered in a Nāgari text are few, or create their own start-up disk by duplicating the
numbers in the third keyboard of Geneva or New York into their Nāgari font file. Those Indologists who mark different types of notes (e. g. notes giving variant readings and notes giving sources of citations in an edited text) with the use of raised Nāgari and Arabic numbers can use either the UBC Indic or the UBC Indic International disk and use the font change or superscript command to indicate those notes which are fewer.
Features of UBC Geneva, Geneva Nāgari), and UBC New York:
3.1 No change has been made in the first two keyboards, except for keys
2.1.1 and 2.1.7. These keys are tied to keys 3.4.66 and 3.2.8b respectively and reproduce whatever font is assigned to the latter keys. In all other respects, the first two keyboards match exactly what is displayed on the Macintosh keyboard.
3.2 The characters with diacritical marks which Indologists need have
been arranged on the third and fourth keyboards in a manner that is
consistent and easy to remember. An attempt has been made to ensure that most such special characters can be produced by pressing just one key. Where this could not or need not (because of the infrequency of the character) be achieved, the diacritical marks given separately are to be
used.
