FONT problems - ograabe - 07-08-2005
I can't get Estrangelo fonts to work on this forum any more. Am I doing something wrong? [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)] Ly0 [/font]

Shlama Akhi Otto:
This format will produce font size=150
[font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]Ly0[/font]
It seems to work for me.
Shlama,
Stephen

Dear Stephen,
I solved the fonts problem this spring and it works for all fonts in my windows/fonts folder.
I found out for Estrangelo that it is necessary to precede the script by typing the code "left bracket" font=Estrangelo (V1.1)] and ending the script by typing "left bracket"/font]. (Icould not actually type the "left brackets" in this post because the font would have been activated.) The process is faster using the fonts= tab on the top right side of the draft page, adding the font name, and typing the script characters between the two sets of brackets. The spacing that I show here is crucial.
The same process worked for all other fonts. For example, the Hebrew characters using the code font=SIL Ezra and for Greek the code font=SIL Galatia
Recently I downloaded special fonts from <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.historian.net/files.htm">http://www.historian.net/files.htm</a><!-- m --> and they worked too!
I use the "Normal" tab to change the font size of the script to "Large" after blocking the script that I wanted to enlarge.
These approaches have worked for me.
Thanks again,
Sincerely,
Otto
