Enjoy!Monday, October 13, 2008The Peshitta tool has been updated to include the option to use the Khabouris Codex as a source text. The Khabouris Peshitta text can be displayed both by using unicode fonts or by choosing one of the many compatible non-unicode fonts. These non-unicode fonts makes it possible to display the Khabouris text in, for example, the Dead Sea Scroll font or the beautiful Hebrew Levistam font made by Stephen P. Silver. For fonts, check out the new fonts page.However, the use of non-unicode fonts are still in an experimental state, as a verse that needs to span over two or more lines does not display properly. The line-breaks are a bit backwards, so to speak. I hope to soon come up with a satisfying technical solution that will fix this! Saturday, October 4, 2008The fonts Estrangelo (V1.1), East Syriac Adiabene (V1.1) and Levistam (V1.1) have all now been updated in order to work properly under Mac OS X 10.5. These fonts are mainly used with the Khabouris Codex Transcription.Tuesday, September 9, 2008Since www.bethmardutho.com, home to the Meltho OpenType™ Syriac Fonts, has been down for quite some time, I've decided to make the fonts available here on dukhrana.com. The font archives can be found at dukhrana.com/meltho/.Friday, July 18, 2008The Peshitta tool has been updated to include an option to specify the size of the Syriac text displayed. Check it out!Wednesday, June 4, 2008Due to popular demand a version of the Khabouris Codex transcription in a Hebrew font is now available for download. Any feedback in the form of corrections is highly appreciated as this is a first draft. The Hebrew font used is called Levistam, and it can be found here.
