[comp.sys.mac.apps] cyrillic font wanted

jml@wally.altair.fr (Jean Marie Larcheveque) (10/01/90)

Could anybody direct me to a good cyrillic font, together
with reliable utilities for remapping character codes, both
on screen and in the postscript definition? (So far, I have
been using keymeleon to customize the keyboard, but this
has the effect of remapping latin characters as well, which
makes working with Word a hassle.)

Thanks in advance.

I like the work done by Linguist's Software, Box 580, Edmunds WA 98020 USA.
Phone: 206/775-1130; Fax: 206/771-5911.  They offer "laser Cyrillic" for
$149.95.  Also MacCyrillic (non PostScript) for $79.95  

They offer many other language fonts (e.g., Kanji, Kana, Korean, Thai,
Farsi, Arabic, Hebrew, IPA, Akkadian.  I lost their brochure
(I'm always lending it out!) so I can't remember all the rest.  But 
I would recommend that anyone with a exotic (or domestic) font need
contact them.

I have no interest in their work, just tryuing to be helpful.

By the way, they are going to publish a concording program
in late fall or winter.  Ask them to put you on the mailing
list if you're interested.
