I downloaded the bible directly from E-Sword, the TS2009, but it's not showing some letters? What could be the error?

TS2009 has names with accented letters.

Use another font with a bigger Unicode range.

 

Click on options and Fonts and choice another font.

I use Tahoma as Default Font and "Times New Roman" for the Hebrew font.

I tried the Times New Roman font but found that it was quite small as compared to the rest of the text in my bible. I now use  EZRA SIL SR font and it works very well the Hebrew and English text are the same size.

I am using eSword in Linux via Crossover Linux and still have blank spaces with the transliterated letters. I have tried all of the above. Any ideas?

The Scriptures 2009 (TS2009) is an official e-Sword resource, and as such is a secured file. Whatever needs to be fixed in it can only be done by Rick Meyers. My suggestion is that you actually contact him and report to those issues to him.

 

Blessings,

I Used Calibri.  It fixed the character issue and also when I Cut & Paste into my Microsoft Word Documents

On the TS2009 Bible, I find that setting e-Sword to use Options, Font Settings, Default Font = True Type Segoe UI (designed as a system font) works well. I have set the Default File Size to 14, the ToolTip Font Size to 14, the Editor Font to True Type Segoe UI, and the Editor Font Size to 14. then I have Greek = True Type Galatia SIL, Hebrew = True Type Ezra SIL, and Latin = True Type Doulos SIL  All these now display all the special characters that are used in the TS2009 The Scriptures 2009 clearly on the screen.

 

The font types, "SIL" refers to fonts developed and licensed by SIL International, a global linguistics organization. These fonts are designed to support a wide range of writing systems and are often distributed under the SIL Open Font License (OFL), which allows free use, modification, and redistribution.
