Now Add The Greek Epigraphic Alphabet To Your Greek Documents!

Greek Epigraphy is available for both Windows and Macintosh, and provides professional-quality, hinted, scalable Greek fonts in both TrueType® and ATM®-compatible, Type 1 (PostScript® language) font formats. These fonts contain the Greek epigraphic alphabet, a complete set of standard Greek epigraphical characters, plus many specialized character shapes used in Greek epigraphy. This includes overdots and underdots used in textual analysis and various positions of overbars for typing abbreviations and Nomina Sacra. The fonts can be used in any text processor to add the specialized characters you need in your scholarly work. The Windows and Macintosh versions of the fonts are ASCII-compatible with each other, allowing easy file transfer between Windows and Macintosh platforms.

The fonts install into Microsoft® Windows XP, 2000, NT, Me, 98, or 95 and work with all Windows XP-, 2000-, NT-, Me-, 98-, and 95-compatible applications that allow the user to select fonts from a font menu. (A custom version compatible with Windows 3.1 is available by request.) The Type 1 fonts require Adobe Type Manager® in Windows Me/98/95. The product includes a Setup Manual, a User's Manual, keyboard layout chart(s), and Character Code Tables showing every character in the font(s). (All documentation is in PDF format, and requires Adobe Reader to view/print.) The included Keyboard Switcher (keyboard driver) allows access to four characters per key (instead of the normal two) and alternate keyboard layouts. The fonts alone (without Keyboard Switcher) will install into Linux, but Linux users must provide alternate keyboard input for characters in the extended character set. These fonts will print to any printer at the highest quality allowed by your printer.

Here's what others are saying about EuroSlavic Here's what others are saying about Greek Epigraphy:

"I found the Epigraphy font extremely useful - and will be using it again for an article on Eleusis. I was particularly pleased to find the epigraphic sign for a drachma (like a sideways T)."
David Gill, Department of Classics & Ancient History, University of Wales, Swansea, United Kingdom
