Russian-English Fonts

To use our Russian Agape-Biblia (if you're running Windows XP or higher):
1. In Control Panel click on Regional Settings, and select "Russian" as your language. (In Windows XP this is under the "Advanced" tab.)
2. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, click on Region and Language in the Control Panel, select "Change keyboards or other input methods," click on "Add" and select "Russian (Russia)".
3. Then start Internet Explorer, and under "Tools - Internet Options" click on the "Fonts..." button, select a font that will let you select "Cyrillic" in the Script box, and click OK. Next, click on the "Languages..." button, select "Russian [ru]" and click "OK".
Or start Firefox, and under "Tools - Options - Content - Advanced" and select a font that will let you select "Cyrillic" in the "Fonts for" box, and in the "Default Character Encoding" box select "Cyrillic (Windows-1251)."

These above steps should let you view Agape-Biblia in Russian after you restart your computer and launch your browser.

Further Optional Steps:
4. If you want to send and receive email in Russian and you use Outlook or Outlook Express, select "Tools - Options - Read," click on the "Fonts..." button, under "Font settings" select "Cyrillic", set "Encoding" to "Cyrillic (KOI8-R)", click the "Set as default" button, and click "OK".
If you use Thunderbird, select "Tools - Options - Display," click on the "Fonts" button, and select a font that will let you select "Cyrillic" in the "Fonts for" box, and in the "Outgoing Mail" and "Incoming Mail" boxes select "Cyrillic (KOI8-R)."
Do not select "Cyrillic (Windows)" either in Outlook or Thunderbird, because Russian uses a different default encoding for email than for browsing the World-Wide Web.
5. However, people sometimes slip up and send email using "Cyrillic (Windows)" encoding, and you will see gibberish in their message. If that happens, open that particular message, and under "View - Encoding - More" select "Cyrillic (Windows)".
6. If you are using Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7 and want to see Russian in desktop icons and filenames, in Control Panel click on Display - Appearance, and select a Cyrillic font for the Active Title Bar, Inactive Title Bar, Menu and Message Text.
7. For Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7, here's how to change System Code Page:
  a. Start / Control Panel (or Start / Settings / Control Panel in classic view)
  b. Double-click Regional and Language Options
  c. Click the Advanced tab
  d. Under "Language for non-Unicode programs", choose Russian
  e. Click OK
  f. Agree when the system offers you to re-start your computer
For Windows 98, if you want to russify your Windows system fonts for Notepad and get Russian screen / keyboard drivers for DOS, right-click on Russify my system fonts and select "Save As" to download our "Russcomp.zip" package. Then unzip* it, read the "Readme.txt" file, install the enclosed fonts, then open Windows Explorer and right-click on the "Russian.reg" file. (*You may need PKUNZIP, WINZIP or a similar program to do this.)
