My experience with Greek word-processors is that those that are good at
handling the fonts are usually very poor at actually processing words.

I have developed a set of Greek fonts for Microsoft Windows. They work
well in Windows Write, and I imagine will work with Word for Windows.
The set includes full diacritics as well as any odd characters I can find that
may be needed.

Also included are:
- A keyboard driver which allows easy entry of breathing/accent/vowel
  combinations.
- A filter to convert Greek files from the TLG/PHI-CCAT format into
  Windows format, preserving all information.

 At present there are printer fonts for most dot-matrix
printers including Epson LQ at 180*360 dpi. I have a Greek font for the
Laserjet but it does not include diacritics, and one or two characters
are in the wrong place. One of my students is working on correcting this.

I am willing to send you a copy of the package if you are interested, as
I would appreciate any feedback at this stage.
