[sword-devel] A question about fonts - to get front-end developers thinking

[David Haslam]

Suppose a Bible translation for language with a non-Roman script has
footnotes that contain some Hebrew or Greek text. 

What then?

The likelihood that a single Unicode font has coverage for the Biblical
languages as well as the target language non-Roman script is pretty small.

Is anyone researching this?

Code2000 might be first choice, but this lacks sufficient coverage for
codepoints added in Unicode 5.0 and later.

David

PS. I first raised this question in the Facebook group called Digital Bible
and Translation Issues.
Our STEP Bible friends at Tyndale House, Cambridge have already encountered
this problem.
