We cannot afford to offer individual technical support. Can you help me get a font working on my system? These advanced capabilities provide the logic for complex rendering of the Latin, Cyrillic and Greek scripts and access to the variant character forms used in many languages. To take advantage of the advanced typographic capabilities of this font, you must be using applications that provide an adequate level of support for Graphite or OpenType. Our Latin, Cyrillic and Greek fonts are designed to work with two advanced font technologies, Graphite and OpenType. The other key to successful rendering of complex fonts is the support given by the application you are using. However, keep in mind that more recent versions (such as Mac OS x v10.8+ and Windows 7+) give the best support. SIL fonts will work on Mac OS X, Linux and Windows. For the most up to date FAQ see the current FAQ About the fonts / Using the fonts What platforms and software will SIL fonts work in? It is provided for users who may still be using those fonts.
