Where can I get free Cyrillic fonts? Russian...

[el gato]

Hi

I am wondering if there are any locations on the net that I can find Cyrillic or Russian fonts - I would like them for a project I am working on. Free is better, but I would pay if there was no other way at all possible.

It seems you can get them here:

what sort of project are you working on? I just started taking Russian 101, so you're thread reminded me that I might need the font at some point.

sps

I have a few tips using cyrillic fonts that might apply to your project:

• Go to >System Preferences>International>Language>Edit... and add Russian (spelled in Russian) and in the Input Menu add a Russian keyboard (even if you don't have one)
• When sending email, use Cyrillic (Windows) from >Message>Text Encoding>Cyrillic (Windows)
• I use ER Unviers Macintosh font for Word (Office) documents. I've exchanged Word documents with PC and Mac users and they all are displayed and printed correctly using this font.
  You can even paste a word in russian from a website to a Word document, but you'll need to select the recently pasted word and change the font to ER Univers Macintosh to display correctly

Hope this helps
