Ancient Near Eastern Fonts by ScryptoArt.com are unique in that they take into account the required versatility when working with ancient scripts. The unique features of these fonts are as follows:

1. Each sign is actually a small image file that is inserted into a word document. (The fonts are designed to work primarily with Microsoft Word although they will work with other word processing programs - if you are using another program besides MS Word, please take a moment to read the readme file before you purchase) This divorces the signs from the values on your keyboard and allows for the insertion of ALL signs in a given script. The number of signs available is not limited by the number of different keys on your keyboard.

2. Each sign is saved as a separate file, and separately under EACH of its values. If a sign has multiple values, it will be saved multiple times in the file list. Each file is named according to its syllabic or logographic value. This allows the you to insert a sign based on the value it has in the text with which you are working, instead of its most common value. No more searching through sign lists or hitting your keyboard hoping to get the right sign!

3. Size and Orientation: Because each sign is inserted into your word processing document as an image file, you will be able to adjust the size and to rotate each sign as you see fit within your document. (The Akkadian font already comes in two premade sizes for ease of use) This allows for the composition of retrograde inscriptions or 90 degree rotations of signs from different time periods. This versatility is unachievable with any conventional font.

4. ScryptoArt.com is offering these fonts at prices considerably lower than other available ANE fonts with much less versatility.
