FlipFont is a great technology from Monotype Imaging and it is using in
android phone of Samsung. The technology allows creating application for
adding more fonts into android phone beside the fonts were shipped in
system of the phone already.
Unfortunately, from Android 4.0 (ICS) and earlier version, FlipFont doesn't work with web browser, but it still find some more useful for Khmer, especially in Galaxy Note II with Android 4.1.1 (Jelly Bean) for browsing song title, video name in Khmer in youtube and chat with friend via facebook messenger.
I would like to note that it works with facebook messenger found on Play Store only, it doens't work with facebook application yet. For facebook application on Google Play Store, we also can chat in Khmer, but we can’t read the feed post on the wall yet.
In Android 4.1.1, Khmer rendering work perfectly in all part of Android OS, but there are not font in system yet. So if you install Khmer.apk in Galaxy Note II, you can read and write Khmer in many applications without root the device.
You can download Khmer FlipFont from here.
