Introduction
There is increasing demand for the pre-installation of the Linux operating system in computers, due to increasing awareness of the quality of Open Source and also the increasing need to avoid illegal use of software.
Linux is a Free and Open Source Software meaning that it can be freely installed and distributed without paying license fees (it has a license, but the the license is free).

Microsoft has included Khmer Unicode font in their new OS, Windows Vista and Windows 7. However, DaunPenh and Dokchampa, Khmer Unicode font, is too small to read. KhmerOS has created many of Khmer Unicode fonts designed by Mr. Danh Hong in an effort to provide a better Khmer Unicode UI font. Among those fonts, we strongly recommend you to use "Khmer OS System" font as default Khmer Unicode font for your Windows Operating System (OS).

How to replace DaunPenh font with "Khmer OS System" font?
