Padma Karpo Translation Committee was established by Lama Tony Duff to offer others some of the knowledge he has gained during a lifetime devoted to the Buddhist teaching, and the Tibetan Buddhist teaching in particular:
fine translations of a wide variety of the important texts of the Indian and Tibetan Buddhist traditions with special focus on the texts needed by practitioners;
texts especially of the Kagyu Mahamudra and Nyingma Dzogchen traditions, with a special emphasis on the Longchen Nyingthig tradition;
a complete system for creating a digital library of Tibetan texts, reference works, and dictionaries, with specialized software for creating and displaying Tibetan text in pecha format, and searching the whole library in moments;
many ready-made digital reference works for the library, all carefully chosen for study and translation of Tibetan Buddhist texts;
many digital reference works for the study and translation of Tibetan Buddhist texts;
the finest Tibetan-English Tibetan dictionary available both as software for local use and as internet online use;
software tools to aid the process of studying and translating Tibetan Buddhist texts.

Lama Tony also established and ran the largest Tibetan text preservation project in Asia during the 1990’s:   The Drukpa Kagyu Heritage Project. The Committee has also absorbed the   Tibetan Computer Company which has been a leader in providing Tibetan computer software since the early 1980’s.
