The font that I use in my works and publications is e-PhonTranslit UNI. It correctly puts the diactritics in their places. [It is for free, but see the copyright note]. Here is the link:</div><div><a href="http://www.uni-hamburg.de/Wiss/FB/10/IndienS/Kniprath/INDOLIPI/Indolipi.htm">http://www.uni-hamburg.de/Wiss/FB/10/IndienS/Kniprath/INDOLIPI/Indolipi.htm</a> </div><div> </div><div>Once you save the font(s) in the "Fonts" folder, which is in the "Windows" folder, they will be part of the "system fonts" and should work in any word processing program, regardless of its version/edition. In MS Word, you can use the "insert symbol" button and navigate to the "e-PhonTranslit UNI" font. Make sure you embed the fonts (or save the Word file as PDF) to see the fonts in the file when it is opened on a computer that does not have the same fonts.</div><div> </div><div>I hope this helps, and I am sorry for sending this long e-mail and repeating things that you might already be very familiar with.</div><div> </div><div>Enjoy the weekend.<br><br></div><div><font size="2"><span style="font-weight: bold; ">Khaled Huthaily</span>, <span style="font-style: italic; ">Ed.D.</span><em></em></font></div><div>Assistant Professor of Arabic & Educational Linguistics</div><div>Director, STARTALK Montana Arabic Summer Institute (MASI)</div></div><div><br></div><div><div>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br></div><div>3)<br>Date: 23 Sep 2010<br>From: Katia ZAKHARIA <<a href="mailto:katia.zakharia@mom.fr">katia.zakharia@mom.fr</a>><br>Subject: Transcription fonts for Word 2007<br></div><div><br></div><div><div>Try Gentium.
