HEBREW TEST:

בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ

UPDATE: This Hebrew has held up fine through a couple of updates. If it stays for another posting or two, I'll tell what I did this time to fix the Unicode fonts glitch.

UPDATE (10 July): This post was originally put up on the 9th, but I'm moving it to the top for a while. The Hebrew is still there after a new posting and a couple of updates, so it seems to be stable now.

If you have a problem with non-Roman language fonts, try this: go to the Blogger dashboard, click on the "Settings" menu, then click on the "Formatting" link. The "Encoding" field should be set to "Universal (Unicode UTF-8)." For some reason, mine had been set to one of the "Western" options. I don't know how it got that way, but the result seems to have been to reset everthing on the main page to a Western font every time something new was published.

The world is now safe for language fonts on PaleoJudaica.

UPDATE (12 July): Another biblioblogger conquers Unicode. Well done, Phil.
