Press Control + Spacebar (or Control + Option + Spacebar) to change English and Khmer quickly without clicking mouse. On new macOS, you can also tap Globe (🌐) / Fn key!

  • Tip 2: Recommended Fonts

Use fonts starting with Khmer OS... (like Khmer OS Battambang, Khmer OS System) or Kantumruy Pro. They render very clean on Mac Retina screen.
