sitelen pona in Google Docs — Zachary Sakowitz

This extension lets you write using sitelen pona in Google Docs and Sheets, with support for Google Slides (hopefully) coming soon.

If you type using the UCSUR standard for sitelen pona, it'll automatically appear in Google Docs and Sheets if you have the nasin-nanpa font installed on your computer. To use another font, add configuration to your file's title as explained below:

To configure the fonts used in your file, add [[toki pona fonts@a google doc font]]. For example, I might title a file "toki pona songs [['linja lipamanka'@Arial]]". Then, whenever I type UCSUR style text, it'll be rendered using linja lipamanka.

The second font in that list will also automatically convert to sitelen pona, even if you type using Latin characters. If I title a file with the title above, any toki pona words in the Arial font will be converted to sitelen pona on my computer, but somebody without this extension will see regular Latin characters. This is useful if you plan on sharing a document, or if you want to edit on your own device.

The default settings are to use nasin-nanpa if possible and to replace Arial Narrow text with sitelen pona, but those are editable with the double-bracket notation as shown above. Remember: toki pona fonts go before the @ sign, and a single Google Doc font goes after the @ sign.
