The Unicode Collection: Volumes I-IV

Awhile back I posted a four-part series on the advantages of Unicode for typing out Biblical Greek and Hebrew. I am linking these posts here so those interested have a one-stop shop for the whole series.

These posts provide a detailed but understandable explanation of what Unicode is, how to set up Greek and Hebrew Unicode keyboards, and what Fonts work best for each language. Enjoy.

  1. How to Type in Greek Part I: An Introduction to Unicode

  2. How to Type in Greek Part II: Setting Up the Microsoft Greek Polytonic Keyboard

  3. How to Type in Greek Part III: The Best Greek Fonts

  4. How to Type in Greek Part IV: Polytonic Greek, Linux Edition (Ubuntu)
