You can switch back to the English keyboard at any time by pressing Left Alt-Shift (you will then see the En [English] indicator).
Refer to the transliteration table for the correct keys for each Persian letter. Most letters are typed phonetically, followed by the corresponding capital letter: eg bB for Beh ب and pP for Peh پ.
When you have finished typing, switch back to En[glish], save your .htm file and view it in your browser.
NB Do not type your text in Word: if you do you will almost certainly encounter problems when saving the file.

"Sal e 1985 e miladi" (سال ١٩٨٥ ميلادی = The year 1985 AD):

(Yeh ی is typed using Y except at the end of a word, when you must type I [otherwise you will get the Arabic final Yeh with two dots underneath].)
You will see a string of meaningless symbols on the screen, but the Persian script will appear correctly when viewed in your browser.
At the end of every sentence or so, switch back to the English keyboard (Alt-Shift) and type a reference number (eg "[3]") or perhaps the Latin transliteration of a Persian word you have just typed. This will help you find your place when editing the Persian source code. (This is done automatically in PerScribe Plus.)
uninstal_us.reg
in Windows Explorer. This will restore the original Faeroe Islands layout.
