Abstract
STG worked with the Department of Slavic Languages to convert all course materials written using MS Word, and a variety of different Cyrillic comuter fonts with different character mappings, to a single character set mapping. The department had been using Macintosh computers since 1984, but had not standardized on any one Mac font for Cyrillic characters. STG developed a simple font converter to map from the original character sets to a single standard character set, and convert the Cyrillic parts of an MS Word document. It also handled the conversion of the Word binary to RTF invisibly.
