Center for Citizen Initiatives
Gateway to Russian Publications


Here, you will need to make a choice according to which type of computer and fonts you are using.

If you don't yet have Cyrillic installed on your computer you can download a good set of fonts here. Select any of the ER fonts; Bukinist is a good serif font, Universal a good sans-serif font.

A SPECIAL NOTE: Netscape users, in addition to changing your fonts (under options...general preferences), you will need to change your "document encoding" (also under the options bar) to "Roman," "Latin2" or "MacRoman."
