How to Install and Get the Greek Fonts
to work on Windows 2000

The procedure from the Windows 2000 Help File.
This is what I am using. I am sure Win 98 is the same.

First you have to install the Greek Language module, then set the Keyboard .
After you install them you will have a small blue square block on your lower
toolbar on your desktop. The letters EN will appear in it. Tho change to
Greek I press Left Alt - Left Shift and it changes to EL (Greek). BTW I have
it set up the Keyboard on Greek 200 among the many other Greek settings.

Here is the copied text from the Help file.

In both cases you have to install the Language pack from the Windows 2000
CD. It includes all the Greek fonts you will be needing.

To install Greek Language. For your convinience I copied from the windows
2000 Help the following proceedure. I hope it is of help.

1.. Open Regional Options in Control Panel.
2.. On the General tab, under Language settings for the system, select the
check box next to the language group you want to install.
Notes

a.. You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the
Administrators group to complete this procedure. If your computer is
connected to a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from
completing this procedure.
b.. To open a Control Panel item, click Start, point to Settings, click
Control Panel, and then double-click the appropriate icon.
c.. To complete the installation of language groups, you must insert the
Windows 2000 CD-ROM or have access to the system files from the network.
Once the languages are installed, Windows 2000 prompts you to restart the
computer.
d.. With multiple languages installed on your computer, you can compose
documents that contain more than one language. Any recipients of
multilingual documents must also have the same languages installed on their
computers to read or edit the documents.
To add an input locale and keyboard layout

1.. Open Regional Options in Control Panel.
2.. On the Input Locales tab, click Add.
3.. In the Add Input Locale dialog box, click the input locale and
keyboard layout or Input Method Editor (IME) you want to add.
Notes

a.. To open a Control Panel item, click Start, point to Settings, click
Control Panel, and then double-click the appropriate icon.
b.. You add input locales to specify the language and keyboard layout or
IME you want to use to type. When you add an input locale, a keyboard layout
or IME for that language is also added. Keyboard layouts and IMEs vary to
accommodate the special characters and symbols used in different languages.
c.. When the Enable indicator on taskbar check box on the Input Locales
tab is selected and you have two or more input locales installed, an
indicator representing the current input locale appears on the taskbar. To
quickly switch between input locales, click the indicator, and then click
the input locale you want to use.
d.. You can add input locales for any installed language group. If you do
not see the input locale you want, then install the language group that
contains the input locale.
