LAST EDITED ON Oct-23-00 AT 06:33 PM (CST)

Shlama all,

Thanks for your patience during this testing period.

Here are the complete instructions on how to post with the Estrangelo font:

First, download the following:

Peshitta specific forum font "Estrangelo (V1.1)"
� https://www.atour.com/fonts/ESTRANG2.TTF

Please refer to the installation instructions for this font in the Grammar Section, if you have not already installed this font. The instructions are found here:

Grammar Section

This is the same font required for the Grammar Section.

Next, in order to post a word or phrase in this font, do the following:

Replace all < and > with square brackets to display Aramaic fonts in the forum messages. Need help? Check the HTML Reference: https://www.atour.com/forums/help-reference-guide.html

Here is an example (Please remember to replace the <> brackets with the square brackets)

<font class="Estrangelo (V1.1)" size="5">Your Aramaic Message Here</font>

In your message, simply include the above statement with the Aramaic words in place of the "Your Aramaic Message Here".

This can be anywhere in your message as you are typing it. In the middle of Latin characters, or simply by itself.

Here is the keyboard map for the font:

This keyboard map will also be available soon as a PDF file in the Grammar Section so you will be able to print it.

Please respond to this message with your own tests.

If you see the following Aramaic "Shlama w'Burkate", then you have successfully installed the required font.

Shlama Akhi,

Alright! It works.

Now, I wonder if it would work in the "subject" line?

I Dont think it works in the subject line.

Its great for messages especially when trying to t-r-a-n-s-l-i-t-e-r-a-t-e

If you use "Right to Left" software its much easier to input. But even without it, its not too difficult if you use the "arrow left" key after every letter.
