Frequently asked questions
Can I really use a Persian Keyboard in Microsoft Word without installing it?
Yes. The Persian Keyboard above runs in your browser. Type your text, click Copy, then paste into Microsoft Word — that's all there is to it.
Will Microsoft Word display the characters correctly?
Modern versions of Microsoft Word render Unicode out of the box. If you ever see boxes (□□□), switch the font to a Unicode-complete face such as Noto, Arial Unicode MS or Segoe UI.
Does this method work on mobile Microsoft Word?
Yes. Open this page in your phone's browser, type with the Persian Keyboard, tap Copy, then paste into the Microsoft Word app on iOS or Android.
Is the text I paste into Microsoft Word private?
Everything you type happens locally in your browser — TypeKeyboard does not send keystrokes anywhere. Once pasted into Microsoft Word, normal Microsoft Word privacy rules apply.
