Thryomanes
Thryomanes with greek support.
»I created the Thryomanes font for representing extended Latin characters and IPA, since most standard fonts do not include these characters. However, some versions of Internet Explorer may have trouble with the IPA characters, depending on which fonts are installed on your system. It appears to be trying to use the Lucida Sans Unicode font if you have it, and you may see a crude, badly spaced imitation of the IPA characters if you don't. Because of the Internet Explorer problems, I temporarily abandoned Unicode in favor of the following method:
The Thryomanes IPA font (ThrIPA) is an encoding of the IPA into the ISO 8859-1 characters available to web pages. This method is readable by Internet Explorer as well as Netscape, although IE still gets the spacing wrong with non-spacing diacritics. Still, it's better than the alternatives. Also, older browsers that do not support Unicode should still be able to use this method. The only difficulty is that the font is currently only available in TrueType format, although I may be able to provide other versions of the font if necessary.«
