@PaulVargas Nice to see the extract. But how disappointing is that Greek font! :( They could have done much better than that. I wonder what inspired their choice. You would have thought with being so immersed in the manuscripts, and so interested to reflect historic realities of the language, that this would have extended to the font, too.

Alas, no! Ancient Greek penmanship (I don't say "calligraphy") placed the weight more on the horizontals than the verticals. Compare these:

The one on top (screen capture from here) (letters chosen more-or-less at random to illustrate strokes), Adobe Text Pro, is what they are using for their main Greek text. It is very, very close to TNR. Notice how thin the tops and bottoms of the "ε" and "ο" are. That so ... latin. And so not "greek"!

If you are finding this so fascinating you feel an irresistale urge to read more, then by all means peruse this mammoth Typophile thread on Greek font design (with Hudson contributions along the way.)

I hope at least @Caleb shares my sense of indignation. Harumph.

@Dɑvïd I've got very used to the long textual apparatus of Nestle-Aland/UBS that my first impression was that text seems to be quite skinny. I found a little review here.

@Dɑvïd Interesting you say that, since I had to study Greek grammar in order to finally grasp my native (American) English grammar. :-)
