Description:
SPTiberian exists in both Macintosh and Windows versions, both with the same character and keyboard maps. By design, all characters in the font lie between decimal 32 and 127 (20x-7Fx, 040-0177), so they should transfer without problem over the Internet.The font is designed to follow the Michigan-Claremont encoding scheme (see http://purl.org/TC/TC-translit.html#Hebrew) to as great an extent as possible, though the vowel points have multiple forms to allow for proper placement with wide characters, narrow characters, and final kafs (and nuns).
The consonants are listed first in alphabetical order, followed by vowel points and then by other signs. Please note the distinction between upper and lower case in "key to push"; all shifted keys are so indicated. Also, note that vowels that are designed for wide characters (most letters) are all unshifted, whereas the corresponding vowels for narrow characters (gimel, waw, zayin, yod, nun) are shifted. Vowels that go with the final kaf (and nun) are mostly mapped to numbers
