Hello all,
Some time ago I've been considering a linguistic Java application, and
created a Java wrapper around the hspell dynamic library as a part of this
effort.
In fact, I introduced a new dynamic library libhspellj.so which duplicates
libhspell.a and adds Java-specific entry points, and the
Hello all,
I'm glad to announce the availability of the new release of Culmus
fonts. This release updates just one font family - David. Despite a
minor version number increase, this update introduces a major change.
The new David font is published in the TrueType format with OpenType
features. Wit
Hello all,
I’m still alive. Besides that, a new font named “Anka” is available for download from the “Fancy fonts”
section of the Culmus site (http://culmus.sourceforge.net/).
Unlike in past releases, this time I chose to publish in
addition the OpenType version of the font.

I'm glad to announce the release of an experimental OpenType font under
the auspices of Culmus project. This is an instance of Frank Ruehl,
aimed to allow testing of Hebrew OpenType support in various
applications.
The font can be found in the Developers' area of the Culmus site

Dear fellows!
This release is aimed to repair the long-standing "tet" bug in Nachlieli.
Largely due to negligence on my part, this bug used to plague at least two
major distributions rendering them practically unusable.
I'd like to thank Dotan Kamber, Dovix and Noam Meltzer, people whose deep

With shaking knees I announce hereby the new release of Culmus fonts. This is a
major release which contains two new typefaces, which will hopefully compensate
for the mess it is about to create. The first typeface is my edition of the
classic Miriam typeface, originally attributed to

First of all, thank
you for the responses - while there is no absolute consensus, which would
release me from the necessity to make the decision, many good points have been

Hello all!
Recently I have been asked to make a change to Culmus fonts, which would
introduce a serious backwards incompatibility. I couldn't decide on it, so
please express your opinion.
The problem is that the size of Culmus fonts is roughly 20% larger that Windows'
fonts. This means, that when
You will need a pfaedit (http://pfaedit.sourceforge.net) and perhaps an
autotrace (http://sourceforge.net/projects/autotrace/). Autotrace greatly
simplifies the life, as pfaedit knows to invoke it and trace scanned
images. On other side, the quality of autotracing is worse than manual. So

Hello Dov!
I've been thinking a while about creating a matching font for Vera family.
I do intend to create sans-serif and monospace fonts in this spirit, but
this would take a while... (a big while). Meanwhile, thank you for the

At the very last day of the semester, I'm glad to announce the new release of
Culmus fonts.
This is a minor release which focuses primarily on improving the on-screen
presentation and readability.
The fonts can be downloaded from the site of the Culmus project:

You can consult the faq at the site - it gives precise instructions; or
use your favorite font installer (Gnome and Kde each have one).

quite unrelated specifically to the Hebrew language or Israeli public, and
consequently wastes some precious space on shipped CDs. Therefore I try not to

not included in the main package (and most of them will never be) and are

more.

Hello!
Thank you for the comments. I'm afraid that further improvement of fonts will be
possible only when I move to the OpenType technology. Unfortunately, no
mainstream software supports advanced OT Hebrew features at the present time, so
it will have to wait until such software becomes availabl

Hello!
The fonts are distributed under GPL. Regarding XFree - if there is need
for Hebrew bitmap fonts, I can release a package similar to Cronyx
cyrillic fonts (i. e. same fonts and sizes) under X11/MIT or compatible
license. Please let me know whether XFree86 team is interested in such
package.
