PLEASE do not use MIME format for messages to B-Greek. While they appear

One of your best bets would be the freeware font SPIonic (it DOES include
characters for digamma, koppa, and san); and one of the best updated places
to look for where to get it is at Mark Goodacre's site:
http://www.ntgateway.com/greek/fonts.htm
I have for years been using SMK GreekKeys fonts which include several Greek
fonts with those older inscriptional characters as well as notational marks
used for papyri, etc. For information about them, go to:
http://www.greekkeys.cornell.edu/FAQ.htm
"Athenian" is one of the SMK fonts; it can be downloaded from the Perseus
web site:
http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/Help/Athenian_Font.html
but should only be used for browsing at the Perseus site; information is
offered on that page regarding how to purchase it for your own use.

Hi!
I recently downloaded silapfon.exe. But I'm having a difficult time getting
my computer to
recognize it. I followed the instructions on the pdf file, but no success.
Can you help?
Thanks
Dagoberto

i would like to make a correction to my last post. I believe that the font
has been recognized,
but this file doesn't seem to contain the font/symbol for manuscripts.
Maybe I downloaded the wrong zip.file?
Thanks again
Dagoberto
