- The font files contained (Russbas.pfb and Russbas.pfm) will suffice for
- any ordinary sort of Windows text usage requiring Russian characters.
- The Adobe type manager (ATM) is required; this is available from
- various sources and, in particular, comes as a standard part of Ami Pro,
- which is what I recommend for Windows word processing generally. ATM
- eliminates the need for keeping lots of disk space tied up with copies
- of the same fonts in numerous different sizes.
-
- The fonts included are keyed to behave like a soviet type 0
- keyboard which is similar to the Dvorak keyboard for Roman characters;
- letters which frequently fall together in the language also fall
- together on the keyboard. Two hours spent playing around with the
- keyboard using these fonts will give you a fairly good feel for the
- nature of the Russian keyboard and you will forever afterwards type faster
- and better in Russian than you ever would with a keyboard which tried to
- match Russian letters to English near equivalents. Two hours isn't
- much; think of it as missing one movie which you didn't really need to
- see.

- and request a copy of our entire Russian font set which contains not
- only standard Cyrillic (Russbas), but a good Russian Cloister font, a
- Russian fairytale font, good Russian capital letters Z, D, and Y for
- beginning correspondence, and a small sample of firebirds etc. for
- letterheads.
-
- The standard Russian font Russbas (HTE Standard Cyrillic) is free to the
- public, and I would appreciate users posting this file (Russbase.zip),
- unaltered of course, to other BBS systems.
