58 of them to be exact, and some of them are very cool: cursive, Paleo-Hebrew, fonts mimicking the writing style of particular Dead Sea Scrolls, etc. They are available here, via the Open Siddur Project. See the bottom of the linked page for installation instructions and examples of the fonts. From the Open Siddur page:

They should work on a Mac or PC. If you already have a unicode Hebrew keyboard installed, you don’t need to install the one that comes with the font pack. The fonts will work just fine with your current keyboard. I use Logos’ keyboards.

SBL Hebrew font is also unicode compliant and available here; the font license is only slightly more restrictive. Tyndale House’s Ezra SIL and Cardo fonts are nice as well (Cardo is especially nice for Greek). Tyndale House’s fonts are included in the Open Siddur font pack, or you can download them here.

Keep in mind that some of these files download as compressed (zipped) folders. After the zipped folder has downloaded, you have to right click it and click “extract all.” When the files are extracted, look for the actual font file (usually a .ttf file). Drag and drop that file into your system’s font folder (usually labeled “Fonts”). I added this folder to my “Favorites” in Windows Explorer for easy access.

If you are a part of the SBTS community and want more information about how to type in Greek and Hebrew, contact the Center for Student Success about the upcoming 1-day workshop “Word Processing for Biblical Studies.” It is currently scheduled for Friday, September 7, 1:00-3:00pm. It will be two hours long (1 hour, break, one hour), and those who attend will be split into two groups based on what operating system you use. I will be leading the workshop for the handful of you that use Windows computers; Jonathan Kiel will lead the workshop for Mac peeps. More info to come.

Welcome to the very best in Hebrew font design! Davka’s

Shmuel Guttman, master font craftsman of Jerusalem. The Font Gallery Deluxe
contains an appealing assortment of unique, high-quality typefaces, and will
add flair and flash to all of your work.What makes the Font Gallery Deluxe truly unique is the full complement of
vowels and cantillation marks that are available in these fonts. DavkaWriter
users, of course, can easily access these special characters within the
program itself. And now, for the first time, users of non-Hebrew Windows
programs, can utilize these special characters by typing right-to-left
within the all-new HebrewTyper applet, included with the Font Gallery
Deluxe, and paste the Hebrew text into their regular Windows programs!On the Mac side, the fonts are compatible with Nisus, the popular
Hebrew/English word processor, and can be used with vowels. If you don’t
have Nisus, and are using a standard left-to-right Mac application, you can
still enter Hebrew text left-to-right, and enter vowels, and cantillation
marks as well, for short passages.

I have tried to include every web site that might be useful to anyone.

If you are in a hurry, only try the web sites that say “Great” beside
them.

These are the sites that have been most useful to me.

NOTE: There is no one standard Hebrew font. All Hebrew fonts are not
the same. Many have totally different keyboard mappings. When I first wrote this page, they were very non-standard. I think over the last few years, they have somewhat standardized.

This SNUNIT.K12.IL site is all Hebrew – used to have Font information, but cannot find now.

http://www.unicode.org – What is
Unicode? It is a growing standard that uses two-bytes per character to describe international fonts.

The Unicode Standard has been adopted by such industry leaders as Apple, HP, IBM, JustSystem, Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, Sun, Sybase, Unisys and many others. Unicode is required by modern standards such as XML, Java, ECMAScript (JavaScript), LDAP, CORBA 3.0, WML, etc., and is the official way to implement ISO/IEC 10646. It is supported in many operating systems, all modern browsers, and many other products. The emergence of the Unicode Standard, and the availability of tools supporting it, are among the most significant recent global software technology trends.

Incorporating Unicode into client-server or multi-tiered applications and websites offers significant cost savings over the use of legacy character sets. Unicode enables a single software product or a single website to be targeted across multiple platforms, languages and countries without re-engineering. It allows data to be transported through many different systems without corruption.
