The history of Mongolian
Information Processing at least have ten to fifteen years.
According to our knowledge, there are a lot kind of
Mongolian system. The Mongolian OS or Mongolain encoding
method, at least have above twenty kinds of it. All of
these systems, have not unified their encode. The Mongolian
scripts save to computer use computer code. By these days,
the code of Mongolian saved by the individual systems
mentioned above, is all different each others. It causes
the saved document can not share each other.
In this digital ages, the standardized encoding is
extremely important. Before the Unicode, all of the country
defined their own standards. After the Unicode getting more
popular, recently, all of the systems accept the Unicode
and provide the unicode support. The Mongolian Unicode
Standard had been accepted by ISO organization and Unicode
Consortium in early 2000.
But the Mongolian Unicode Standard
Proposal use new font rendering techniques. All the OS
providers are not ready to provide the complex font
rendering logic on system level till 2007 or 2008.
Microsoft provided the complex font rendering engine and
Mongolian implementation on Windows Vista.
But the Vista system itself have
memory and performance problem led the most of users
downgrade their PC to XP.
The Mongolian implementation has
been widely used since the Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2.
Although Windows Vista and Windows 7 only provided one
Mongolian Baiti font, it is provided a new era or new road
to Unicode Mongolian implementation and Mongolian
Information Processing.
