Now you can type
ancient Hebrew alphabets right to left,
with proper line wrap and full justification.
Welcome to
LaserPaleo-Hebrew in Unicode for Windows and Macintosh (LaserPaleo-HebrewU). This exciting product provides ten
professional-quality Unicode-encoded TrueType® Paleo-Hebrew
alphabet fonts for typing ancient Hebrew character shapes. Included in LaserPaleo-HebrewU
are fonts containing the character shapes of the inscriptions found in level
VI of the Arad excavations, the
Gezer inscription, the
Samaritan inscription,
the Zakkur inscription, and the inscription in the
Siloam tunnel. There is a font containing the
character shapes of the Lachish letters written on
potsherds, and there are three fonts containing the character shapes of
Old Phoenician. Finally, while not Hebrew,
included is a related font containing the character shapes of
Imperial Aramaic.
Since the fonts are Unicode-encoded,
users can
type right to left with proper line wrap and full justification of the
Hebrew text. The
user may switch back and forth between Hebrew, English, and the other
supported languages simply by toggling between the included Hebrew and
English software keyboard drivers (keyboard resources).
When you select the Hebrew keyboard, input will automatically be right to
left. When you select the English keyboard, the input direction will
automatically change to left to right. Users may combine ancient Hebrew with text
from any other language supported by the fonts or by your computer's Operating System. All
this can be done with your regular physical keyboard; you do not need to buy
a special keyboard to use LaserPaleo-HebrewU fonts.
These
alphabets are easy to type because the fonts are arranged phonetically,
following the US keyboard as closely as possible. Also, the font layouts are
compatible with the LaserHebrew® in Unicode fonts.
Keyboard layout charts are provided to help
you learn the layouts of the fonts.
LaserPaleo-HebrewU for Windows
and LaserPaleo-HebrewU 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, and compatible software is used. (Please be
sure you understand the System Requirements for
Windows and
Macintosh before you order.)
