Shlama,
I'm just about finished with Mattai in Aramaic, K'tav Ashuri/square Hebrew script from the Eastern Aramaic Peshitta. When finished the PDF will be fully searchable with the traditional "Western" chapter and verse divisions to facilitate easier access for researchers. When I get the formatting completed I'll provide a link for download.
I used Akhan Stephen's Hebrew font (Levistam) for the script.

Shlama Akhi Stephen,
The font really is beautiful and I'm sure you put a lot of work into its design and creation.
Thank you very much for your comment about the site. It has a long way to go.

Shlama,
The PDF for Mattai is now ready for downloading. A second edition will have an appendix with glossary, notes, and so on.

The PDF's of Matti and Yaaqub look great in the square font. Keep them coming.

Shlama Akhi Stephen,
Mark will be next, but I want to make sure any typos are corrected in Mattai and then I'll do some different formatting to the text for publishing in print form. I think it needs a fine or ornate border around the text. Eventually, Alaha willing of course, we'll have an entire Peshitta in square Hebrew.
Something my son and I started working on a while back is a Peshitta Chumash, so to speak, with the Hebrew Masoretic text, Targum Onkelos, English translation of Onkelos and the Aramaic text of the Peshitta with notes and references. I'm afraid the Chumash will be a long time in coming.
