About CyrillicFontPack:

Native BeOS/BitStream fonts with cyrillic glyphs

Swiss, Zurich, Dutch, Courier10 (roman/bold), Monospace (roman/bold) fonts with cyrillic glyphs. Western extended symbols replaced with Win1251 cyrillic codepage (for usability with Opera).

NB! unfortunately some programs need exact internal fonts' names (e.g. Personal Studio and Gobe Productive in some cases) - so internal font names in this pack exactly match existing latin/western font names. It means that in order to avoid system confusing you are forced to (re)move existing fonts with those names from BeOS font folders (It's little bit inconvinient, because new fonts do not contain umlauts and accented western glyphs). Sorry.

WARNING! Don't forget to set temporarily some alternative fonts as plain, bold, mono before removing/replacing system fonts!!! Deleting actual plain_ font may turn your system unbootable!!!

About licensing. BitStream fonts are commercial product, but I expect that (as those fonts/faces are already licensed to use in BeOS) using this package INSIDE BeOS ONLY is possible. Anyway - follow link below and enjoy fine BitStream (Be Inc partner) production. CD with big amount of nices fonts is $29.99 only.

Details about this version:

Compatibility improved, names corrected(again), baseline in Swiss shifted, mis-named decorative fonts removed (in reality under file names AdLib, OzHandicraft and Futura were other fontfaces. It resulted in system confusions. And also those decorative fonts don't belong to BeOS font set.)

If you have prevouisly installed CyrillicFontPack 1.0 or 1.1 - please remove those fonts before new installation!!!
