I am experimenting with some foreign fonts.
I listen that the best way to display them is using unicode.
The page now created isn't unicode.
The question 1 is how I type and generate unicode text ?
That depends on your operating system (and version number
of your OS).

Temperorly I set up a page with some font settings in CSS.
The font is standing http://shalva.comweb.nl/fonts/
I try to let the browser know which font to use with
style TYPE="text/css" MEDIA="screen, print"

body {font-family:Avaza; font-weight:none; }

/style
Second question is this a good way of displaying the foreign characters ?
This is *very* bad because your font seems to have Georgian
letters in ASCII code positions.

Or is there a beter way?

The page is set at:

Or the source code:

Third question is it displaying on your PC correctly ?
Not as you probably intended.
