The website has now been converted to Unicode
If you are only going to be reading the
Text and Translations and English Only sections
there is no need to install any special font.

However, if you want to read the Original Texts and Prosody sections
you need to download and install the fonts
from the downloads page
otherwise the character sets will not show correctly.

Alternatively all documents are available in PDF Format,
which has the font embedded, and is printable.

The website makes extensive use of
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and Javascript,
so to be able to read and navigate the site with ease
you will need to have these facilities enabled.
