Fonts

Many of the texts included in BrillOnline include special characters, such as accented letters and non Roman writing systems, which can sometimes appear incorrectly in your browser.This can be resolved by ensuring that you have a font installed on your computer that includes all of the special characters.The recommended font is BrillOnline. Alternatively, any font with good Unicode support will give you all the characters you need. Such fonts include Gentium, Arial Unicode MS and Lucida Sans Unicode.

Gentium: http://scripts.sil.org/gentium

A special note for users that browse or search New Jacoby and the Coptic Gnostic Library. Some articles contain texts in Syriac or Coptic characters.

• For Syriac, Brill advises the Unicode font, kindly supplied by Mr. Kiraz, available at http://www.bethmardutho.org/meltho.
• The Coptic Gnostic Library requires installing a Unicode Coptic font. We highly recommend the Unicode font Antinoou.

Further information about fonts and Unicode can be found at Unicode web site or at Alan Wood's Unicode Resources.
