scottgreek Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Hi, Is there a way to get MS Word documents I write which include the Helena font to have the Helena font show up when I send that document to other people who don't have it installed on their computer? I don't want to save the document as a pdf as I want the other person to be able to edit the document too. Thanks, Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorinda H. M. Hoover Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 As far as I know, it's not possible. Is there a reason you're not exporting Greek text from Accordance as Unicode? Exporting as Unicode would allow other users to view the Greek in any Unicode font that supports Greek characters. Lorinda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean R. Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Helena is a proprietary font; in order to have it, one needs to own Accordance. Your best option is to export Greek from Accordance as Unicode (go to Preferences: Greek & Hebrew to set this option). When pasted into your Word document, the text will be viewable/editable by anyone with whom you share the document. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Jenney Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 ...or you could gift that other person with one of our basic Accordance packages! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Weaks Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 For a long time, I wondered why OakTree didn't make Helena/Yehudit freely available, or sell it as an individual font package. The lack of such was a true disadvantage for users. The question is more and more only ancient history, as now the clear solution is to use Unicode.

Vandymarc Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Joe, for some reason you make me want to forget reading these forums and take a long nap in the hammock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Weaks Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 vandy, That pic is from a Caribbean resort trip with my partner 5 years ago, and we just booked another one for this May. I'll update my avatar at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
