What others are saying What others are saying


LaserGreek® in Unicode™ provides professional-quality, Unicode-encoded Greek fonts in TrueType® OpenType® format for Biblical and classical (polytonic) and modern (monotonic) Greek. The Greek fonts include all standard accents, breathing marks, iota subscripts and diereses used in Biblical and classical Greek. Because the LaserGreek in Unicode (hereafter LaserGreekU) fonts include separate composite forms of each vowel with each diacritic combination, every letter shape and diacritic position is perfectly positioned, including the iota subscript directly below the left leg of the eta. Omegas and alphas, with or without diacritics, are wider than in our older non-Unicode-encoded LaserGreek and LaserGreek II Greek fonts, and iotas are narrower. (See below for a comparison of non-Unicode SymbolGreek II with the new SymbolGreekU and SymbolGreekTU Greek fonts.) The LaserGreekU fonts are distinctive in that they also include the Nestle-Aland, UBS, Leiden, many TLG text-critical symbols and sigla, extra characters for epigraphical and textual studies, and arrows for indicating papyrus grain direction. In addition, eleven of the fonts (SymbolGreekMetU, SymbolGreekTMetU, GraecaUBSMetU, OdysseaU, OdysseaUBSU, HellenicaU, HellenicaCU, and the four TeubnerLSU fonts) also include metrical long and short marks with all breathing marks and accents. The four TeubnerLSU fonts also include 78 special characters not included in any other of the fonts. All the Greek fonts also include superscript and subscript numbers, the Latin 1 character set and additional Latin characters and diacritics covering many other languages.

LaserGreek in Unicode for Windows

LaserGreek in Unicode for Windows

LaserGreek in Unicode for Windows includes nine keyboard layouts that provide four-characters-per-key input (instead of the normal two-characters-per-key) in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP, and 2000.

  • bulletThe keyboards include 5 keyboard layouts for classical and Biblical Greek;
  • bulletTwo keyboard layouts for English and many other Roman-based languages; and
  • bulletTwo keyboard layouts for modern Greek: a standard modern Greek National keyboard layout for monotonic Greek, with the acute accent dead key on the semicolon key, and a keyboard layout for modern Greek with a transliterated (phonetic) US layout.

The 5 keyboard layouts for classical and Biblical Greek provide easy input of all the characters, breathings, accents, and breathing-accent combinations of classical and Biblical Greek. There are three keyboard layouts with English arrangements and two with French arrangements.

  • bulletThe first keyboard layout takes advantage of the OpenType layout features built into the fonts for the most logical, intuitive input available. Input order is letter, breathing mark, dieresis, accent, and iota subscript. The letter with its associated diacritics is built up automatically as you type, with all diacritics perfectly spaced. This keyboard layout requires Microsoft Word 2007 or newer (but see below), OpenOffice.org 3.2 or newer, InDesign CS4, or QuarkXPress 8.02 and is provided with both English and French arrangements.
  • bulletThe second keyboard layout works with any Unicode-compatible application and uses deadkey input to type Greek letters with their associated diacritics. The user first types the deadkey (representing the diacritic) and nothing happens. Then the user types the vowel and the accented vowel appears in the file. This keyboard is also provided in both English and French arrangements.
  • bulletThe third keyboard layout provides easy input of the extra characters provided in the SymbolGreekMetU, SymbolGreekTMetU, GraecaUBSMetU, OdysseaU, OdysseaUBSU, HellenicaU, and HellenicaCU fonts, and the four TeubnerLSU fonts. These characters include metrical long and short marks with all breathing marks and accents, uppercase letters with accents, breathing marks and iota subscripts (instead of adscripts), and other special characters, and the keyboard only inputs these characters.
  • bulletUsers can easily switch between keyboard layouts at any time using a keyboard shortcut. Detailed instructions are included.
 

Windows System Requirements

  • bulletOperating Systems:
    1. Requires Windows 10, 8, 7, or Vista. (An older version for Windows XP, or 2000 SP3 is available. Contact the sales office or specify Windows XP in the Special Instructions dialog on the order form.)
  • bulletApplications
    1. bulletRequires any Unicode-compatible application, such as Microsoft Word, Adobe® InDesign®, QuarkXPress 7.0 or newer, LibreOffice 3.3 or newer, OpenOffice.org 3.2 or newer, or Microsoft Publisher. (Microsoft PowerPoint is not compatible.)
    2. bulletOlder, non-Unicode applications such as QuarkXPress 6.5 and earlier, PageMaker, and WordPerfect (tested only through version 12) are not compatible.
    3. bulletMicrosoft Word 2007 or newer, InDesign CS4 or newer, QuarkXPress 8.02 or newer, LibreOffice 3.3 or newer, or OpenOffice 3.2 or newer, is required to use the included GreekLS Classical OT or GreekLS Classical French OT keyboard layout for logical input order (letter-breathing mark-dieresis-accent-iota subscript), or to use the included EnglishLS OT keyboard layout for input of Latin languages with the same logical input order (letter, accent).
    4. bulletUsers of any other Unicode-compatible application will use the GreekLS Classical, and/or GreekLS Classical French (deadkey) keyboard layout, and the EnglishLS (deadkey) keyboard layout, which provide deadkey input (diacritic-letter).
    5. bulletAll keyboard layouts provide full access to all letters and diacritics used in classical and Biblical Greek; they differ only in input method.
    6. bulletMicrosoft Word 2003 does not support the above-named OpenType keyboard layouts, but does support the deadkey keyboard layouts.
    7. bulletMicrosoft PowerPoint 2003 (included in Microsoft Office 2003) is not compatible with LaserGreek 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 Greek text directly into PowerPoint using our non-Unicode LaserGreek or LaserGreek II fonts. (Earlier versions of PowerPoint have not been tested for compatibility.)

LaserGreek in Unicode for Macintosh

LaserGreek in Unicode for Macintosh includes six keyboard layouts for use in Mac OS X 10.4 or higher.

  • bulletThe first two keyboard layouts take advantage of the OpenType layout features built into the fonts for the most logical, intuitive input available. Input order is letter, breathing mark, dieresis, accent, and iota subscript. The letter with its associated diacritics is built up automatically as you type, with all diacritics perfectly spaced.
  • bulletA third OpenType keyboard supports English and other Latin languages.
  • bulletThese keyboard layouts are known to be supported by Microsoft Word 2011, Mellel word processor, or InDesign CS5 or newer. Other programs may also support these features.
  • bulletThe remaining three keyboards use deadkey input. Users type an accent key, which is a deadkey. Nothing happens until you type the next letter, and the keyboard then inputs the accented letter.
    1. bulletThe three keyboards are
      1. bulleta phonetic Greek keyboard layout allowing access to all the characters, breathings, accents, and breathing-accent combinations of classical and Biblical Greek;
      2. bulleta standard modern Greek National keyboard layout for monotonic Greek, with the acute accent dead key on the semicolon key; and
      3. bulleta transliterated phonetic Greek keyboard layout similar to the National keyboard layout, but with letters arranged differently to be more phonetic to the English keyboard.
    2. bulletAll Unicode-compliant applications support these three keyboard layouts, since they do not make use of OpenType features built into the fonts.
  • bulletBoth the GreekLS Classical OT and GreekLS Classical deadkey keyboard layouts allow easy, logical input of the Greek and the text-critical symbols and sigla needed by scholars.

Macintosh System Requirements:

  • bulletOperating Systems

"Thank you very much for your superb font files."
Masaru Nagashima, Richmond, B.C., Canada

"I have thoroughly enjoyed using your Greek font and keyboard, as it has everything built in. I don’t have to go looking for text-critical symbols, signs, dots, etc. It has been very helpful to me, so much so that I wrote my entire PhD dissertation in SymbolGreekU! For textual critics and papyrologists, this is a must have font and keyboard combination. Thank you, Linguist's Software!"
Brice C. Jones, Ph.D. Candidate, New Testament, Department of Religion, Concordia University

"Many congratulations, Philip, for the incredible font families you have created. Your fonts are really the best."

J. Ross Wagner, Associate Professor of New Testament, Duke Divinity School

"The LaserGreek in Unicode fonts are giving excellent service. Many thanks for the clear instructions and the level of service generally."
John Taylor, Tonbridge School, England

"Everything is perfect and is working well. Thank you for your goodness in putting forth perfection and the extra thought that makes me feel like I owe you all something even after I have paid the bill. Linguist's Software has far surpassed my expectations. You all have fulfilled everything I was hoping for with absolute perfection. I surely have the very best Greek fonts on the planet."
Brian K. Smith, Smyrna, TN

"I am always very pleased with your fonts. I use your fonts for teaching elementary Greek, and with Graeca UBSU I have stopped getting complaints that the students have trouble distinguishing soft and rough breathings under a circumflex. Your fonts have a pedagogical advantage and not only an aesthetic one. Keep up the good work."
Professor David M Schaps, Department of Classical Studies, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel

"I love your LaserGreek in Unicode product. Thank you."
Michael Rowe, Barnesville, GA

"Thank you once again for everything. I truly think that I have the best font package in the world. I am amazed at what you all have done and I am amazed that I have been able to obtain it. In truth, I could not be more delighted with my fonts. May God look on your works and kindness and bless you and yours."
Brian Smith, Smyrna, TN

You all have done just what I was hoping for in every detail in creating the SinaiticusLS and SinaiticusLSAU fonts to complement my beloved GraecaU. It works just as I had hoped. This note is to express my true thankfulness to you all. The creation of the SinaiticusLSAU was grace and kindness. I truly think we have brought this font to where God wants it.
Brian Smith, Carol Stream, IL

I am continually amazed by the variety and precision of the many linguistic products you provide. I think the UncialLSU Greek is the most elegant typeface. You also provide the simplest Greek keyboard layout.
Ronald Bruzina, Department of Philosophy, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky

"The SymbolGreekMetU font looks fabulous. I’ve only run into two compound characters so far that you don’t have in the font as a composite form, and the spacing on the compound parts worked out well even for these two. That’s pretty impressive for a work by this author. The font really does look great in the English as well as the Greek text. Much nicer than the Palatino the publisher had been using."
Linda Diering, Production Manager, Focus Publishing, Newburyport, MA

"I am truly thankful to have your product. You and your staff have been very clear, and professional; your skill and kindness leaves me with a compelling desire to express my thankfulness not only to you but to all who might read this note and that it might encourage them to purchase your products with confidence."

Dr. Jean Urban Andres, SatzWeise, Germany

"Your fonts are the best!"
Bruce W. Neely, Alexandria, VA

"OdysseaU is gorgeous! It is wonderful! Most Greek fonts are plainly ugly. One was driving me crazy. OdysseaU is a sheer beauty to behold."
Peter Riedlberger, München, Germany

"As a longtime user of your Greek and Coptic fonts, I have always been impressed by the high quality of the fonts you produce and have also been grateful for your team's attention to customer service and technical support."

"LaserGreek in Unicode is fantastic, and so is the Coptic. My publishers are going to love this!"
Professor April DeConick, Rice University, Houston, TX

"I'm very much enjoying using the LaserGreek in Unicode fonts. To have quick access to accents and critical sigla is just fabulous, since I am working on ostraka and using Unicode or character maps to represent the text is painfully tedious.  With HellenicaCU, a few keystrokes create even heavily edited characters."
A. Roy, Macquarie University, History Department, NSW, Australia

"Thanks for your wonderful software!"
Louis Demos, Harvard University

"...the Teubner font is lovely. I must have it."

Daniel Rodriguez, Houston Baptist University, Houston, Texas

Michael Straus, Columbia University, New York, New York

"Thank you for the LaserGreek in Unicode beautiful high-quality fonts. Please, keep on developing beautiful high-quality fonts!"
Christian Sebastian Becker, Hamburg, Germany

"I am delighted as I work with LaserGreek in Unicode HellenicaU for Windows Vista."
Manuela Teixeira Tschanz, Geneva, Switzerland

"In 2005 I purchased a Greek New Testament in Unicode and LaserGreek OdysseaUBSU and GraecaUBSU in Unicode from you. I must say that I am very impressed. You have saved me hours of time every week in typing the Scriptures for exegesis and what joy I had lost is back again. I am so thankful to God for Linguist's Software, Mr. Payne and his staff. You even made it possible for me to read my UBS in the font I grew up with! Foolish of me, I suppose, but there is some comfort in that and it speeds up my recognition of things. In the Mellel processor you sold me I can easily alternate between English, Latin, Greek, Hebrew and German. Now my study materials and papers look like I had hoped they would. And I see that, if I should like a font that works well with whatever English fonts I have, that you are making those available too. Just excellent! You restore font-work to the eye-aiding practical art it should be. Thank you again. Gott bei Ihnen!"
Rev. Bradley E. Ragner, BA, MDiv., Pastor Messiah Ev. Lutheran Church Shiocton, Wisconsin, USA

"We have used Linguist's Software fonts for several years, including your Greek and Hebrew fonts as well as your Semitic Transliterator. We have been pleased with the quality and functionality. I am impressed with the new Unicode versions of the fonts and I enjoy the added features. I am very pleased with it. Thank you!"
Jacob Rawlins, Production Coordinator,
Institute for the Study and Preservation of Ancient Religious Texts, BYU, Provo, UT

"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

Christoph Metz, Cölbe, Germany
