Welcome to
LaserPaleo-Hebrew for Windows and Macintosh. This exciting product provides ten
professional-quality TrueType® and Type 1 (PostScript® format) Paleo-Hebrew
fonts for typing ancient Hebrew character shapes. Included in LaserPaleo-Hebrew
are fonts representing the character shapes of the inscriptions found in level
VI of the Arad excavations, the
Gezer inscription, the Samaritan inscriptions,
the Zakkur inscriptions, and the inscription in the
Siloam tunnel. There is a font matching the style of the
character shapes of the Lachish letters written on
potsherds, and there are three fonts with the style of
Old Phoenician. Finally, while not Hebrew, included is a related font matching the
style of the character shapes of Imperial Aramaic.
This font collection is easy to use because the fonts are arranged phonetically,
following the US keyboard as closely as possible. Also, the font layouts are
compatible with the LaserHebrew® and
LaserHebrew II fonts. Keyboard layout charts (for
Windows or Macintosh) are provided to help
you learn the layouts of the fonts.
LaserPaleo-Hebrew for Windows
and LaserPaleo-Hebrew for Macintosh are compatible with
each other. Documents typed with these fonts may be transferred back and forth
between Windows and Macintosh with no conversion necessary as long the fonts are
installed on both computers. (There is a single
exception to this, discussed below in the Windows and
Macintosh System Requirements sections of this page.)

LaserPaleo-Hebrew for Windows
TrueType® and Type 1 hinted Paleo-Hebrew fonts. The fonts are
typed with your default keyboard. Simply select the font in your application's
font menu and type, following one of the included keyboard layout charts. The
arrangement of the fonts is phonetic, based on the US keyboard layout, and typed
documents may be transferred to Macintosh users with no conversion necessary as
long as the appropriate font(s) are installed on the Mac. The single exception
to this is the AradLevelVILS font. The basic Hebrew forms may be typed with your
default keyboard and documents typed this way are cross-platform compatible.
However, AradLevelVILS includes extra characters not in the other fonts, and
these characters cannot be typed with your default keyboard. The product
includes the AradLevelVILS keyboard driver which provides access to all
characters in the font. If these extra characters are included in your document
special instructions (included in the User's Manual) must be followed to transfer the document to a Mac user.
See the
keyboard layout charts.
System Requirements: The fonts install into Microsoft® Windows 7, Vista, XP, or 2000, and work with all Windows-compatible
applications that allow the user to select fonts from a font menu. The product includes
a User's Manual and keyboard layout chart(s). The included keyboard driver(s) allows access to
four characters per key (instead of the normal two) and alternate keyboard
layouts. All documentation is in PDF format, available on the Windows Start
menu, and can be viewed and/or printed using
Adobe Reader. The fonts will print to any printer at
the highest quality allowed by your printer.
A custom version (fonts only) is available
for Linux,
but Linux users must provide alternate keyboard input for characters in the
extended character set. If you are ordering for Linux be sure to select the
Linux box on the Order Form.
