<h1 class="athenaruby">Athena Ruby</h1>
<p>The files, tools, and documents below pertain to Athena Ruby, Dumbarton Oaks' font for
publishing Byzantine inscriptions. Unofficial news, documentation, tools, and examples
are provided here. This is also where the latest version of the font can be downloaded.
As items on this page mature, they will be pushed to <a
href="http://www.doaks.org/digital-humanities/publications/athena-ruby-inscription-font"
>the official Dumbarton Oaks website</a>. </p>
<p>You use the font, documentation, and ancillary tools at your own risk. At this early
stage, users are assumed to understand how to install a font and how to use it with
various software. You have a wonderful opportunity to help make Athena Ruby more useful
to the community. Contribute to some of the documentation, tools, and examples below by
forking this website in <a href="https://github.com/Arithmeticus/Athena-Ruby">from its
Github repository</a>. Or create some new tools. If you have a comment or question,
please send it to the <a
href="https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/athena-ruby">group</a> or
the project manager, Joel Kalvesmaki (kalvesmakij (a) doaks.org).</p>

(web-friendly), woff, svg, and eot. It is important to have all four, because there
are wide differences in the way major browsers handle specialized typography. See

<h2>Examples and Tests</h2>
<p>Note: not every browser is programmed to handle advanced typographic features of CSS3 and
Athena Ruby. It is recommended you review these pages with more than one browser.</p>
<div class="item">
<h3><a href="fontsquirrel/athenaruby_b018-demo.html">Demo page of Athena Ruby</a></h3>
<p>Note especially the fourth tab, which supplies the CSS code needed to make font
display work with all the various major browsers. Generated by <a
href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator">Font Squirrel</a>, a very
useful font utility.</p>
