To: umix!pepe!emv It seems I do this about once every few months and only for Russian. (never serbian, aramaic, sanskrit, babble, etc. :-) :-) For Cyrillic and other fonts CONTACT: CasadyWare P.O.Box 223779 Carmel, CA 93922 (800) 331-4321 (US order taking only - a service) (800) 851-1986 (Calif. order taking only) (408) 646-4660 (9-5 Pacific time - real Casady & Ware) Fluent Fonts. contains a Cyrillic set but its not as good as Fluent Laser Fonts Volume #9 (Cyrillic) List:$69.95+tax+ship To quote from the Fluent Laser Font brochure: Russian, Ukranian, Bulgarian, Serbian. (All other words in Russian.) Laser & plain Fluent Fonts use a different keyboard layout even though the font name is the same. The font bit patterns are different too. Laser Fonts come as Cyrillic, Bold C, Italic C, and Bold Italic C as one happy family. Laser Fonts seems to also contain the OLD Russian letters (as I've been told). I have had both (and some PD fonts) on my Mac but only the Laser Fonts now. ---- OK, so I know them and they've done me favours but (I make no commission :-) and) I honestly know of no other LaserFont for Cyrillic. (I disclaim nothing!-) ---- BTW What are you doing with Cyrillic? If it involves anything more than just typing letters such as CAI, machine translation, etc. please drop a line. I have relatives interested in working with others in this area. -- UUCP:...!amdahl!drivax!socha WAT Iron'75 "Everything should be made as simple as possible but not simpler." A. Einstein
