+{\large\bf Using the Tibetan Font with \LaTeX}
+\end{center}
+
+\noindent
+\LaTeX \ commands are available outside the Tibetan mode only.
+The two characters \%\%\ \underline{must} precede
+text that is to be processed by the Tibetan Parser. They effect a font
+change into Tibetan, begin spacing and punctuation according to Tibetan
+rules, and allow control over output using the special characters
+described here. At the end of Tibetan text, these two characters
+\underline{must} appear again. \LaTeX \ expects white space to
+precede and follow these font change characters.
+
+\medskip
+\noindent
+The following characters are embedded in the text to access
+the Tibetan Parser and font:
+
+\begin{description}

+space produces a long space.

+The normal way of marking paragraphs in \LaTeX \ is to double space. The
+effect of this in the Tibetan mode is to terminate a line and begin a
+new line. This produces a ragged right and is useful for making lists
+in Tibetan. \end{document}
