I have found that daily typing practice soon becomes less and less arduous and more and more rewarding. As I have found with my Russian keyboard, one needs to use the old "ASDF-GH-JKL " typing practice method to associate the position of the old keys with the characters of the newly added language. "Stick on" bi-lingual stickers can be put on the QWERTY keys that correspond to your "virtual" Hebrew keyboard. In summary, if you are using Windows you have the ability to add either one (or both) of the Hebrew languages and keyboard layouts for your keyboard output. By using this feature of Windows I myself have added both Russian and German character sets, and their associated keyboards. In the "Add Language" drop down selection box you can then add one or two types of Hebrew languages, and associated keyboards. That being said (and I don't know if you have done this already) if your computer's operating system is Microsoft's "Windows" you can add additional languages and keyboards (go to "Control Panel" -> "Clock, Language, and Region" ( change keyboards and other input methods) -> "Region and Language". For Hebrew there is ISO standard, ISO-8859-8, for Hebrew, that is, the standard equates the output character to a numeric value that outputs a character. It does that because the "Ü" character has that keyboard number, which is included in the ISO-Latin 8 character set. For example, the ISO-Latin 8 will output the German character "Ü" by pressing and holding the ALT key down while typing the numbers "0220". Font makers associate every character in a character set with an ISO-standard numeric value. For Western (U.S., Canada, Asia, and the Pacific) the standard used with virtually all computers is the "ISO-Latin 8" standard.

The international ISO character standards determine what characters will be output from a keyboard.
