If you're using a Unicode application (e.g., one that uses ATSUI or
MLTE), then the Windows font will work fine. Just set the file type
to 'sfnt' using ResEdit or a similar utility.
If you're *not* using a Unicode application, you'll have to use an
old-fashioned hack font. I'm font of Graeca from Linguist's Software,
myself.
