Some modules have missing fonts. for example, 

Liddell and Scott Greek–English Lexicon (LSJ; unabridged); work with GRV or Greek NT INT+

 

This is just one of a few that I don't have the correct fonts on my PC. Does anyone know what fonts I need to install to correct this?

Another one I have this problem a lot with is 

Mounce Concise Greek-English Dictionary

 

Thanks

Thanks. I left you a comment at YouTube:) Thanks. I left you a comment at YouTube:) Hopefully this is a fix for many things but it didn't fix everything. Unfortunately, this forum doesn't allow me to use img links or I would post a screenshot of the  BLBr, Berean Reverse Interlinear. Ephesians 1:8 ἐπερίσσευσεν. But the epsilon with the smooth breathing mark shows up as a "square" in the Berean dictionary .

I did restart esword after changing the font as shown in your video.

I use "Galatia SIL 2.1" for the Greek font.

https://software.sil.org/galatia/

Double click and install in Windows, then start e-Sword for Windows.

Todd,

    In the Berean Dictionary (or any dictionary or lexicon module) the topic word in bold in the middle at the top of the dictionary entry uses your default font, not your Greek font, even if the topic word is in the Greek language.  You would need to change your default font to something else.  I like Segoe UI, but there are other font choices that will not give you the "square", including Arial and Times New Roman.  Trebuchet MS and Verdana are two problematic default fonts for this specific case and either one of them gives me the dreaded "square".  Now I'm curious, what is/was your default font?

When I use "word" or "OneNote" the default font is Calibri, which I believe became the windows default font several years ago. So, I assume that is my default font. I am not sure how I would change the default font on windows.

You can change the default font in Windows by using the following steps 

Here is how to change your Fonts in Windows
Click on the Start Menu then click on the Gear icon to open up the Windows Settings, please choose Ease of Access, then on the Display, look at the right side , you should be able to toggle the Font slider to your desired size and then click Apply.

Todd,

     e-Sword has a Default Font.  That's the Default Font that you need to change, not the Windows Default Font.  It's on the same e-Sword dialog box where you change the Hebrew, Greek, and Latin fonts, under "Options" and "Font Settings..."

I had changed my esword fonts to what you show in the video. It did not solve the problem.

 

I'm curious how you posted that attachment? Every time I try to post an attachment it says I am not allowed to do it.
