   Is there a possibility to write texts with some words in 
   Greek (with accents...) with LaTeX?


The Greek fonts by Silvio Levy include all combinations of accents and
breathings (spiritus asper/lenis) used in classical Greek.
There are METAFONT sources for roman, bold and typewriter style
plus a macro package which makes it easy to write long texts in greek.

The sources can be found in

 (Extract from TeX-FAQ)

I got it from the GERMAN SITE rusmv1.rus.uni-stuttgart.de (129.69.1.12)
in directory /soft/tex/fonts/metafont/greek-Levy.

I have installed it on a SUN with dvips and also on a 286-AT under MS-DOS 
with emTeX and dvips, and it works fine.
The fonts are very good except the "iota subscriptum" which looks rather
like a black square than like a iota. There also seems to be a bug in the
lowercase gamma METAFONT source, but only in the typewriter style.

There will be no problem with dvips (by Tomas Rokicki). It will 
automatically call METAFONT to produce new font sizes (e.g. for 
\magstep5 or other resolutions than 300dpi).
