Help w/ Russian Fonts

[Jian Liu]

Hi,

I don't know what you need the russian fonts for, but our experience might
be useful to you if you want to install the fonts for web browsing. 

Please take a look at:  http://www.indiana.edu/~librcsd/multi/

We obtained the fonts from Update Products in the Help menu of IE4.

Our multi-lingual web station has been very popular since its installation
in Oct. We are thinking of expanding the service.
