Hi,

My mother is a Hindi teacher and she needs to type the question papers for exams. Please suggest a freeware (if possible) or MS office 2010/2013 plugin which can help her learn Hindi typing.

OS: Windows 10 Home x64

Thanks in advance

Google input tools provides a feature where you can download a tool with which you can type in Hindi in phonetic manner. So to type, "नरम बिल्ली , गरम बिल्ली , फर की छोटी बौल, खुश बिल्ली , सोती बिल्ली, पर पर पर" you just have to write, "Naram billi, Garam billi, fur ki choti ball, khush billi, soti billi, pur, pur, pur".

^ Can you link an offline installer to Google Input Tools?

BTW what about 4CLipika or any other regional typing font/software?

^ That isn't the offline installer.

Why don't you go for Hindi typing fonts?

She'll find it hard to learn the respective key combinations. She can't even type in English fluently.

Ah. There's a keyboard skin available in the market which has hindi fonts imprinted on it. Maybe it can help in your case.

Nothing beats typing Hindi in phonetic manner. It even suggests difficult words.
Download it here: On Windows â€“ Google Input Tools

It would be easier to use Hindi Hand writing app on Android, write the question paper within Gmail and send it to yourselves. Then simply open and copy paste the text to Word.

Typing a question paper on a phone would be PITA itself.

I used Shusha05 Font for my Hindi projects back in school. maybe it can help you.
