[sword-devel] BHS beta posted

[Jason and Larua Brooks]

I have looked around for the MS Arial Unicode set, but it doesn't seem to be available anymore.  Can someone point me to it online, or possibly to a viable substitute?  I am running Win XP Home, and can display the Hebrew characters, but they are very poor.  Don's screenshot looked much nicer and legible than mine.  BTW, the text is fine with XP Home.

Thanks,
Jason Brooks
