Fonts
When I started with this web site I have used a special Windows font called "Umschrift.ttn v2.2"
for the transcription of hieroglyphic writing. This font can be download from the Homepage of the department of Egyptology,
University Goettingen. This is also recommended to anybody who wants to
have names and titles to be displayed in an appropriate way. |
This font has been developed by Prof. Friedrich Junge
and provides an extensive font for transcription, vocal- reconstruction
etc., for different systems of transcription. |
Use the link below to download the font directly here from the current
page, unzip the folder and install the fonts.
|
Or go yourself to the Department of Egyptology, University Goettingen,
and download the fonts from the page "Software & Utilities"..
|
Obviously, the corresponding CCER-font is more common. Therefore,
I have started to use this font and I will change step be step the pages.
Thus, I recommend to download the CCER-font in addition.
|
The zip-file contains the font and a Word document showing the layout of
the keyboard.

Note:
If you are using a protected environment such as
Bitbox to surf
in the internet, it may be that you don't see this font even after the transliteration-font
has been installed on your computer
because the environment does not allow access to locally installed fonts. |
