I copied/pasted into Word then converted to HTML. It turns all of those into character references, which is expected because as far as I know, Hebrew and Greek are only supported by HTML through character references. <span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>ב ;ּ ;ְ ;ח ;ֹ ;ר ;ֵ ;ב ;</span>Thankyou, Logan.
I will paste from a page I visited where there is no specialised font, but presents the Hebrew in the arial font:
"בְּחֹרֵב."
The source code includes no extra tags or scripts. It appears in Hebrew characters but in the same font as the English characters.
Any ideas?
I checked and the code indeed claims to be using UTF-8. And yes, from looking around a bit, it does seem one can just type the character in, so long as one is using UTF-8 and an appropriate editor for such, of course. That's rather neat. I've been looking for a way to get odd characters without having to resort to character references.armourbearer said:Yes, the source code shows the Hebrew characters as is. This is how it appears at the Matthew Poole blog. I thought there may have been some special way of doing this, but it must only be a matter of typing out the special character in that font.

Hebrew characters are part of the Unicode standard. see http://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0590.pdf
My teacher replied this way, "It isn't the font that matters, it is using a unicode keyboard. You need to activate a Hebrew and Greek unicode keyboard to type in Greek. "
