Voynich Hand A fonts
--------------------

Copyright (C) G. Landini 1997. All rights reserved.

This package contains EVA, Currier and Frogguy alphabet fonts of the
most common characters in the Voynich Manuscript, in the following
formats:

        True Type (Windows),
        True Type (Macintosh),
        Type 1 (Unix),
        Type 1 (Windows),

The fonts in this package are free, but not public domain.
You may distribute this package freely and unmodified. You may not
charge for it. You may not distribute it as part of any commercial
package. If you use the fonts in any work, please acknowledge the
author. If you do not like or agree to these conditions, then make
your own fonts!

The EVA and Frogguy fonts support the capitalisation rules (connected 
to the next character if capitalised).

Note that if you use the fonts in Word, the single quotation (') and
double quotation (") are changed automatically into "smart quotes"
(which are in fact different characters). This will therefore prevent
you to see the expected characters. This happens only if you type new
text; if you load a text file, the ' and " are kept unchanged.

Alternatively, the autocorrection can be switched off from the Tools,
Autocorrect (Word 6) or from Tools, Options (Word 6 & 7) menu items.

Thanks to Rene Zandbergen, Jacques Guy & Jim Reeds for suggestions and
testing the fonts.
If you find any problems, e-mail me at G.Landini@bham.ac.uk

The Macintosh fonts were translated by Michael Kubecka. Please see
the README.MAC file included in this archive. As I do not have a
Macintosh computer available, I am afraid that I would not be able
to answer any technical questions relating to the Mac fonts.
