  ISO **?*
  --------
  
  For Windows and Macintosh
  
    http://www.duth.gr/gr/greekfonts.html
  
  This is at the Dimokriteion University of Thraki, in Ellada (Hellas,
  Greece). But this font follows another standard, ISO **?*, which I
  cannot recall now. This is a standard that places the Greek letters
  at the first half of the font list, where you usually find the Latin
  letters. That means that a text like this would appear with Greek
  letters.
  
  
  Actually, just before two days I started reading a font-related
  f.a.q. The contents say it has information on where to obtain fonts,
  and I believe it may have information on where to obtain Greek
  fonts. But for the time, I haven't read it yet.
  
  This font-faq can be found at
  
    ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/news/answers/
  
  Try part 1.
  
  I am now preparing a more generalized file, concerning Greek
  language and Internet.
  
  Regards
