HEBREW CHARACTER REPRESENTATION HEBREW CHARACTER REPRESENTATION

(ASCII RANGES)*Lewis
M. Barth This file requires a browser which
can recognize tables. In order to see the Hebrew characters, it is necessary
to use an appropriate ISO 8859-8 font. Several
are available on the WWW for downloading. You might try Web Hebrew AD or similar font to show Decimal Code Points and Lower ASCII characters
in Roman characters and the Hebrew column in Hebrew.
You might also download and use Accent Multilingual Mosaic to
view the table correctly.
