[QUOTE="Gil-galad, post: 4572868, member: 44154"]I've been working on a project called Ancient Coin Visual Keyboard for the past couple of years. It's purpose is to type out the characters based on what you see on the coin, copy and paste online like Facebook and any website that accepts Unicode. Also to display in text programs like Notepad and more, also to print pages and attribution cards for coins. Here is what's supported so far. It's best to use on a PC or Laptop. Some fonts are supported by Windows Vista to 10, the others you have to find. The links are there to go directly to the website to download the fonts. [URL]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/ancientwhitesheet/font-support-test.html[/URL] Here is the keyboard page to check out. The first page is the Greek page, the links are at the bottom for other scripts. [URL]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/ancientwhitesheet/AC-VK-Greek-Latin.html[/URL] Last but not least here is a page using the Symbol font to type Greek on images. [URL]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/ancientwhitesheet/ascii-pre-unicode-font.html[/URL] Here are a few images I made for posting on Facebook, showing how to read some coins.
