I'm using Ubuntu 6.10,and I have at least two fonts, Akkadian_1, and
BATimesAkkad, for which there are very few instructions.
For the first ones, there is a small note:
Download the first set of fonts
<http://members.aol.com/ricdum/akka1.zip>Akkadian-1.
This is a set of about 220 signs each accessible by the codes
between ALT + 0033-0255, excluding 0127 and 0160.
Unzip the file akka1.ttf and install as a new font.
However, how does one go about making this produce cuneiform signs?
There are no Readmes to go by.
I know that to type in Kazakh, for instance, I have to have my keyboard
set for Kazakhstan. There are no native keyboards for Akkadian . :-)
I can understand that this is not usually the sort of question you deal
with, but I hope you can give me a bit of help.
Thanks,
JimW
