I agree with Carl's useful suggestions, but one warning: Jonathan
Robie's site is now quite out of date, several dead links etc.

I'd recommend either of two one-stop solutions, SPIonic, the
Scholars Press freeware font, also available as part of a "font kit" at
Tyndale House, or the SIL Greek Font System. If you'll forgive the
plug, I've an annotated list of Greek fonts available, with links to
keyboard maps & general introductions, surveys etc. on my Greek
NT Gateway: Fonts page at:
