[comp.sys.mac] Looking for a Cyrillic

avalon@ucscb.UCSC.EDU (Scott A. McIntyre) (03/10/88)

I'm looking for a Cyrillic Font to run on my Mac SE (I know that the machine
is irrellevant, but just letting you know).  I have one but for some reason,
it has a REALLY weird keyboard mapping, It's not phonetic, or even symbolic.

Either send it to me, or tell me where I can ftp it from...thanks...and
I need it ASAP..

Scott

Well, here we go again:  (and interestingly enough last Firday I deleted
			the file I've been saving just for such an occasion.)

Fluent Fonts and Fluent Laser Fonts are available in Cyrillic.

CasadyWare
P.O. Box 223779
Carmel, CA 93922
(800) 331-4321,  (in CA)851-1986
(408) 646-4660   (9-5 Pacific time weekdays)

Order:
Fluent Laser Fonts #9 (the one ComputerWare doesn't list as being carried)
is the Cyrillic one.  ($69.00 plus tax/shipping)
or:
Fluent Fonts Version 2.0 (bitmapped only)   (Sorry, don't have the price handy)
select which depending on your needs.

Both use the same key mapping which is semi-phonetic with the QWERTY layout
my sister-in-law tells me.   CasadyWare says that the layout follows some
international standard.  Also, there is a keyboard remapping DA or init
that can be used to change the layout to match your preferences.
It's discussed in the Fluent Fonts doc.  (Sorry, not here, it's at home)

Hope this helps  (and I don't have to repeat it again :-)
