Subject: R: 6.0516 IPA Fonts

SMURTHWAI@HARTFORD asked about IPA fonts in 6.0516.

Tim Montler's most recent (March 92) set for WordPerfect 5.1
and HP LaserJet printers is available by anonymous FTP to

ftp.unt.edu in pub/micro/ibm/phonts.zip

These have good installation notes, and are worth looking at.

While on the subject, however, what are people using and recommending
for IPA fonts in Windows?

The SIL Encore IPA fonts are a set of scalable IPA fonts
containing the full International Phonetic Alphabet with
1990 Kiel revisions. Three typefaces are included:

SIL Doulos (similar to Times)
SIL Sophia (similar to Helvetica)
SIL Manuscript (monowidth)

Each font contains all the standard IPA discrete characters
and non-spacing diacritics as well as some suprasegmental and
puncuation marks. Each font comes in both PostScript Type 1 and
TrueType formats. The fonts are available for both Macintosh and
Microsoft Windows. They are freeware.

The Macintosh fonts are available by FTP from:

sumex-aim.stanford.edu
/info-mac/font/sil-ipa.hqx.

The Windows fonts are available by FTP from:

msdos.archive.umich.edu
/pub/msdos/mswindows/fonts/sil-ipa.zip

The fonts can also be ordered on diskette (including printed
documentation) for $5 (plus postage: $2 in US, $5 outside US)
