Be aware, however, that many fonts in many operating systems lack such ability, and that many of our front ends use rendering widgets which could easily barf on such functionality. Xiphos and BibleTime ought to be OK from a renderer's perspective, provided a good system font can be found, but I would imagine BibleDesktop might suffer. BibleCS probably has access to good fonts, but it uses very different technologies, so check that one carefully. BPBible, especially older versions, might have a tough time with advanced character sets. MacSword is probably fine! --Greg _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
