What Greek fonts should I use on my PC/Mac? Regardless of whether you use Windows, Linux, or Mac, the first answer to this question is that you should not be using a font that replaces Latin letters with the shapes of Greek letters (which typifies fonts created in the 1980s and 1990s). Rather, you should type all Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Russian, Chinese, etc. Using Unicode.
I am on Mac OSX Sierra. Accordance 12.1.3. Recently the Greek font has not been displaying correctly, it is giving odd characters in various places. So far I've tried the following: 1.
Cleaned up fonts when opening Accordance in Safe Mode. Cleaned up fonts in Font Book. Note, I actually have been using Suitcase Fusion for font management for several years, no problem till now.
Reinstalled Accordance. At one point the problem resolved upon restarting the computer, but no longer. I see also in Preferences / Unicode Display Settings, neither Helena nor Yehudit appear as choices in the pull down menus.
They are activated in Suitcase Fusion. Note also that if I copy/paste into Word, Helena appears properly - so it seems to be a display issue, not an issue with the font itself. This problem may have begun when I upgraded to 12.1.3, so I am wondering if there is some issue in that version.
