Now get EuroSlavic® fonts
in a Unicode™-encoded version!
EuroSlavic® in Unicode™ provides professional-quality,
Unicode-encoded fonts in TrueType® OpenType® format for typing all
Western and Central European Latin-based languages, plus many other
languages. The fonts include all standard diacritics used in these
languages. Because the EuroSlavic in Unicode fonts include separate
composite forms of each vowel with each diacritic combination, every
letter shape and diacritic is perfectly positioned. Because the fonts
are Unicode-encoded they are interchangeable with other Unicode fonts
that support these languages.

Font Samples: A
single
font sample is shown below for each font. Links to additional font samples
will open in a new browser window and will give you a greater appreciation for the beauty and
variety of these fonts. These additional samples will show you the
complete character set. The
samples are on separate pages because the
graphics are quite large and will open slowly if you have a slow dial-up connection.
Note that these samples are low-resolution web samples (graphics). The
actual fonts will always print to the highest quality your printer is
capable of producing and will be consistently beautiful.

Top EuroSlavic in
Unicode is available for both Windows and Macintosh
 EuroSlavic
in Unicode for Windows
 EuroSlavic
in Unicode for Macintosh
EuroSlavic
in Unicode for Windows
The product includes two keyboard layouts that provide
four-characters-per-key input in Windows XP, Windows 2000 and Windows NT4.
The first keyboard layout takes advantage of the OpenType layout features
built into the fonts for the most logical, intuitive input possible. Input
order is letter, accent, accent. The letter with its associated diacritics
is built up automatically as you type, with all diacritics perfectly spaced.
This keyboard layout requires Microsoft Word 2003.
The second keyboard layout works with any Unicode-compatible application
and uses deadkey input to type letters with their associated diacritics.
The user first types the key representing the deadkey (or the accent) and
nothing happens. Then the user types the letter and the accented letter
appears in the file.
Windows System Requirements:
| Operating Systems
|
Fonts and software keyboard driver: Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows NT 4.0. |
|
Fonts alone: Windows Me, Windows 98, or Windows 95. |
|
Please read the notes below to be sure you understand the
limitations you will have if your Operating System is not
Windows XP, 2000, or NT 4.0. |
|
|
| Applications
|
Any Unicode-compatible application, such as Microsoft Word 2002,
2000, or 97. (Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 is not compatible.) |
|
Older, non-Unicode applications such as Word 95 (Word
7) and Word 6 are
not compatible. Quark XPress, PageMaker, Corel WordPerfect,
and Lotus Word Pro are
not compatible. |
|
Microsoft Word 2003 is required to use
the included EuroSlavicLS OT (OpenType) keyboard layout for
the most intuitive input order (letter-accent-accent). Users
of any other Unicode-compatible application will use the
EuroSlavicLS Deadkey keyboard layout, which provides deadkey
input (accent-letter). Both keyboard layouts provide full
access to all letters and diacritics in the fonts; they
differ only in input method. (Note that Word 2003 installs
only into Windows Vista, XP, or 2000 SP3 or later.) |
|
Do you need a copy of Microsoft
Word 2002? We can provide the OEM version at a
discounted price. (Note you can use the deadkey input with
Word 2002, but Word 2003 is required to use the OpenType
keyboard layout method.) |
|
Microsoft PowerPoint 2003
(included in Microsoft Office 2003) is not compatible
with EuroSlavic in Unicode for Windows. All text is changed
to the Arial font, whether typed with the keyboard, input
using Insert Symbol, or pasted from Word using the Windows
clipboard. PowerPoint users should type their text in Word
or another Unicode-compatible application, and save the text
as a graphic for import into PowerPoint. Users can also use
WordArt to create their text. To do this in PowerPoint go to
Insert, Picture, WordArt, and type your text, formatting it
as desired. Alternatively, users can type directly into
PowerPoint using our non-Unicode EuroSlavic
fonts. (Earlier versions of PowerPoint have not been tested
for compatibility.) |

| Notes
|
Windows
XP, Windows 2000, or Windows NT 4.0: To use the software keyboard
driver for easy
input of Unicode text you
must have Windows XP, 2000, or NT 4.0. The included keyboard drivers provides
four characters-per-key input (instead of the normal two
characters-per-key), following our paper keyboard layout chart. This
provides easy, intuitive input of all characters in the font. Complete instructions are
included in the User's Manual included with the product. |
|
Windows Me/98/95: The fonts alone may be installed into
Windows Me/98/95, but the software keyboard driver does not install into or work in
Windows Me/98/95. This means you may install the Unicode-compatible fonts
into Windows Me/98/95 and open files that were created in Windows XP/2000/NT
using the fonts if you have a compatible, Unicode-enabled program, such as
Microsoft Word 2002/2000/97. In Windows Me/98/95 you will be able to edit
documents that use these fonts in several ways. In Word 2002 you may use
Insert Symbol or a built-in hot key feature to insert Unicode characters.
In Word 2000/97 you may use Insert Symbol or the Linguist’s Software
Word template included with the product. This template includes a macro
which duplicates most of the features of the hot key feature built into Word 2002. Using these
methods you can input characters one at a time in Windows Me/98/95. These
input methods are not as easy as using the keyboard driver in
Windows XP/2000/NT (see above), but are adequate for small editing
projects. Complete instructions are
included in the User's Manual included with the product. |
|
Windows 3.x: This product does not work with Windows 3.x. |
|
Printer: The fonts will print to any Windows printer at the highest quality allowed by your
printer.
|
|
Documentation: All documentation,
including a Setup Manual, a User's
Manual, and Keyboard Layout Charts (showing placement of the
characters on the keys), is in Adobe Acrobat™ PDF
format, and is installed into the Windows Start menu for easy access. Users may view the documentation on screen
or print it, using
Acrobat
Reader, available free online if you do not already have it. |

us know.)
|
|
Even applications that claim to be Unicode
and OpenType compliant may only support a limited range of Unicode characters or
a limited set of OpenType features. Contact
Linguist's Software about compatibility questions and about the availability of
a non-Unicode version of this product that works in all applications.
|
|
| Notes
|
These fonts are compatible with the Windows
version of EuroSlavic in Unicode. No conversion of files is necessary
when transferring files to Windows if your applications are fully
Unicode-aware and compatible fonts are installed on both systems. |
|
Converting files from EuroSlavic to
EuroSlavicU: The EuroSlavic Converter is
available to convert EuroSlavic (ASCII-encoded) Word files to the
EuroSlavicU fonts. |

Cost: US$ 99.95 for any single
set; $50 for each additional
EuroSlavicU set for
Macintosh purchased at the same time; $249.95
for EuroSlavic Professional in Unicode for
Macintosh (all sets together) Order

For non-Unicode versions of these fonts, available for both Windows
and Macintosh, see:
The non-Unicode EuroSlavic fonts are not interchangeable with
EuroSlavic in Unicode. Both Unicode and non-Unicode fonts, including
Unicode and non-Unicode versions of EuroSlavic, may be
installed on your system (since they have different file and font names)
and may even be used in the same files. They are not, however,
interchangeable.
To convert Word documents typed with the non-Unicode
EuroSlavic fonts, see the EuroSlavic Converter:

Here's what others are saying about EuroSlavic in Unicode:
"This is exactly what I needed. Thank you very much!"
Giedrius Kolesnikovas, Vilnius, Lithuania
"Thank
you for all your help with the Turkish fonts, patient and kind technical
support. I appreciate your excellent products and always prompt service
and never take them for granted. It is a pleasure doing business with
you. My gratitude is heartfelt and sincere. I wish all business
communications and transactions were as pleasant, smooth, and
stress-free as with the Linguist's Software staff -- especially in this
complex and dizzying computer and software era we live in, where
business systems are also increasingly becoming automated and
dehumanized. Here you have real programmers, technical support experts
actually answering your call and all your questions, helping you out
like angels. And the Linguist's Software products I have bought from you
over the years always speak for themselves. Thank you again for
simplifying my life and making it so much easier. God bless you."
A. J. Ecegul Elterman , Bayville, NY, USA
Professional Interpreter & Translator, English / German / Turkish
"EuroSlavic in Unicode works well with our Linux and Windows
application. You guys did such a great job. We found no problem with
your software."
Tomas Rokicki, Director of Technology, Instantis, Santa Clara, CA
"I wish to thank your company for this handy product. It works
seamlessly and smoothly with Office XP Pro. After waiting for this to come
out through quite a few years, I'll still say it's like a Godsend of a
plugin, and that it's worth the wait. Keep up the nice work! Best
regards."
Yuan Lin, Forest Hills, NY
"I want to compliment Linguist's Software on its Installation Manual
and User's Manual. They are by far the best written and the easiest to
understand of any software manuals I've seen in over 10 years."
HB, Albuquerque, NM
