Me too, Jill.  I'm in the middle of reading the sketch -- enjoying it a
lot; very nice!  But I too am having some trouble reading the fonts.

Dear Jill,

I am also very curious to read your grammar sketch, many thanks for
sending it
around. Could you tell me which fonts you are used, unfortunately, not
all
characters come out correctly? Or, could you provide me with a pdf
version of
the Word document?

All the best from Regensburg
Johannes
