Hmmm. Searching through the card browser is less of concern for me, because I can use tags of "The Surah or Chapter number :: the Ayah or verse number :: and possibly the page number and/or other divisional marks" to easily locate what I am searching for (which I don't even know how to search in Mnemosyne yet because I have not needed to).
And I wish it were as easy as just switching between fonts for text, but it is not, because some fonts have unique key stroke patterns for certain letter/syllable combinations, that will not appear correctly in other fonts. Sometime ago, I did use SM15 for testing purposes of a few short suwar (chapters) and it displays alright, but I have to copy the text to a separate document and enlarge it before copying/pasting into SM - but setting up the formatting or templates of the 'cards' is still a bit of a mystery to me, the interface is less than user friendly, and the yahoo group is less than active, a very few tutorials for exactly what I need. I really prefer using Mnemosyne. I also asked my (font professional) colleague in KSA to see if he can communicate with the QT group, but it will be after the Hajj and 'Eid al-Adha vacation. In the meantime, I will continue with Alif Baa vocabulary that are coming along nicely! :) Thank you again.
