Apple Fonts

Mac OS X includes many fonts which include the Cyrillic character set. In fact, nearly every font will display Cyrillic text correctly now. However, not every font will include the Cyrillic chraracter set in the style of the Latin characters. Many - perhaps most - of the fonts will display Cyrillic characters in a rather standard serif or sanserif font.

ER (English-Russian) Fonts


These are Truetype fonts developed by Gavin Helf, L. Jake Jacobson, and myself, in the early days of the Mac Cyrillicization. These ER Cyrillic Fonts for the Macintosh were prepared by Zenon Marko and L. Jake Jacobson; The PC originals were created by the esteemed Gavin Helf. St. Cyril was regrettably not available to review the results.


Although infamously named "English-Russian", these fonts allow you to work in those Slavic languages which use the Cyrillic alphabet, including Ukrainian, Belorussian, Serbian, Macedonian, along with Russian. These are still useful under OS X. The set includes four font families, and each includes four different encodings as follows:


  1. -Apple Standard Cyrillic (Macintosh)

  2. -KOI8

  3. -1251

  4. -866
