The font files contained (Russbas.pfb and Russbas.pfm) will suffice for 
any ordinary sort of Windows text usage requiring Russian characters. 
The Adobe type manager (ATM) is required;  this is available from 
various sources and, in particular, comes as a standard part of Ami Pro, 
which is what I recommend for Windows word processing generally.  ATM 
eliminates the need for keeping lots of disk space tied up with copies 
of the same fonts in numerous different sizes. 
 
The fonts included are keyed to behave like a soviet type 0 
keyboard which is similar to the Dvorak keyboard for Roman characters; 
letters which frequently fall together in the language also fall 
together on the keyboard.  Two hours spent playing around with the 
keyboard using these fonts will give you a fairly good feel for the 
nature of the Russian keyboard and you will forever afterwards type faster 
and better in Russian than you ever would with a keyboard which tried to 
match Russian letters to English near equivalents.  Two hours isn't 
much;  think of it as missing one movie which you didn't really need to 
see.

and request a copy of our entire Russian font set which contains not 
only standard Cyrillic (Russbas), but a good Russian Cloister font, a 
Russian fairytale font, good Russian capital letters Z, D, and Y for 
beginning correspondence, and a small sample of firebirds etc. for 
letterheads. 
 
The standard Russian font Russbas (HTE Standard Cyrillic) is free to the 
public, and I would appreciate users posting this file (Russbase.zip), 
unaltered of course, to other BBS systems.
