• Helena for Greek,
• Yehudit for Hebrew,
• Peshitta for Syriac,
• Sylvanus for uncial Greek manuscripts and Coptic,
• Salaam for Arabic, and
• Rosetta for transliteration characters.
• The MSS font is used for manuscript citations.

The Accordance font is installed in the C:\Windows\Fonts directory and can be accessed by other programs on your computer. The remainder of the fonts are part of the application itself and cannot be used outside of Accordance.

The Character palette displays the special characters in each font and can be used to click and enter the desired character in a User Note or User Tool. A pop-up label identifies each character and reminds you of its keystroke. The text is displayed using Accordance fonts, and not in Unicode.

Some fonts have different forms for characters depending on their position in a word. All these fonts include special accents and other characters which occur in various overstrike positions for different characters. You do not need to learn all these positions for the different fonts. Accordance lets you type any version of a character, accent or vowel point, and automatically enters the correct character or overstrike position.

Most of the Accordance fonts are not Unicode fonts and are not compatible with Windows. The exception is the Unicode font "Accordance," designed to allow copying of all languages used in Accordance for use in other applications and other computer platforms.
