I'll summarize to comp.fonts if I get good >answers. I did! So here it is: ( sorry for the delay ) There seems to be two lines of solutions - The TeX way and regular PostScript fonts. The TeX fonts seem to be free of charge and Scott Horne (..!harvard!yale!horne) promised to send me the fonts if I wanted them. Also Maverick has them. PostScript fonts that are delivered for the Mac has font metrics files that transcript can use and there are screenfonts for the Mac included. These are convertible to fonts for the Sun. You need a free program that I don't know the name of, but Dan Sahlin has it. Here comes the list of fonts. Kirillitsa from CasadyWare. Sold by Mac dealers. Linguist Software has a font too. Mac dealers. Devonian International, P.O. Box 2351, Montclair, CA 91763 Has one that covers several slavonic languages and turkish. Windsorgraphics, Kings House, Kings Arms Lane, Ringwood, Hampshire BH24 1AH Has one by name Laserperfect. Per Ambrosiani by Slavic Institution, U of Stockholm Tel: +46 8 16 20 00 ( to the U ). He has made the font with Fontographer. Educorp Inc. has one in their shareware/pd catalog... Tel: 1-800-843-9497. Casady & Greene, in Monterey, CA, have it. In comp.text we saw that: Raimund Riem, ZFE2KOM33, Siemens AG, Munich, West - Germany mail: @riem!ztivax Private address: R. Riem, Steinsdorfstrasse 6, D-8000 Muenchen 22 West Germany has made some variants with Fontographer. His address seems very strange to me. In the header it stood: (Habst du mein antwort bekommt?) Well, that was a lot to choose between. Thank you very much everyone. By the way, if you need remaping of your Sun keyboard there is a good program that is called Sunkeys. It works very well for me.
