Greek-style font?

Post by prr »

I had, in a previous installation of MS Word, a font that displayed the traditional Roman alphabet, but tweaked to look like Greek letters--but it wasn't a Greek font, more like a faux Greek font.

I haven't been able to find such a font in my usual free font sites. Does anyone know of one?

Thanks for the link. I looked for one that you listed that looked very promising for what I am looking for--Adonis bold. It is here: http://moorstation.org/typoasis/designe ... isBold.htm

After poking around a bit more, I saw an earlier Greek font of his that looks much like the Adonis, but not in bold print. Using Quick Greek with boldprint is almost indistinguishable from the Adonis Bold.

Thanks for the link.
