Template:Tengwar

This is a template for embedding tengwar script directly in the text of articles. It uses the tengwar encoding devised by Dan Smith in 1996, which is use by his fonts and the vast majority of other tengwar fonts that have since been distributed.

Using Dan Smith-style code, you write the template to look like this: But it will look like this: Take special note that the characters   should be HTML-escaped inside the template, written as   respectively.

This template specifies a list of some of the most popular and common tengwar font families by default, but this can be customized in the stylesheets of individual registered users by altering the  CSS class and marking it as. If, in the above example, you see only ASCII characters, it means you don't have any of the corresponding fonts installed. Template:Tengwar
