Lyx? the problems of correctly setting the type in a Torah book drove the publishers of Keter Yerushalayim to write their own set of tools: http://www.index.co.il/dfus/article_page.asp?info_id=112840 http://www.israel-mfa.gov.il/mfa/go.asp?MFAH0kxe0 http://www.israel-mfa.gov.il/mfa/go.asp?MFAH0kxu0#jerusalem this link has a phone number: http://members.tripod.com/Einav-web/eventLibLecture.htm As for fonts and the sad lack of them: http://mail.edu-negev.gov.il/a-s/inter12.asp Sadly, the Bible is partly a project of the Hebrew Uni, but I see no publication of theirs on the subject. If there was any justice, all the information from and about the project would have been available to the public, including fonts and sources. as for the question of whether you need Unicode or not, look fist at what TeX/LaTeX has to offer. -- Boy genious Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ This post is encrypted twice with ROT-13.
