What sort of stuff is it, if it's straight forward i might be able to have a pop but it'd need to be fairly basic ... <p></p><i></i>

well, they are quotations from different sources (Dio, Ptolem. and papyri) AND they are in Greek fonts.<br>
Most of them are just a couple of words but 4 of them are almost complete lines.<br>
<br>
(if i can translate the Greek fonts to normale letters i can post them here, is there an alphabet for this? - i.o.w. Theta is ???, mu is ???). <p>Volo anaticulam cumminosam meam!</p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub45.ezboard.com/bromanarmytalk.showUserPublicProfile?gid=pelgr003>pelgr003</A> at: 1/8/04 10:12 am<br></i>

I teach Greek, so am happy to give it a go. What Greek font's it in? You can e-mail it to me at [email protected] . A transliteration might help if I don't have the same font:<br>
theta = th<br>
chi = kh<br>
phi = ph<br>
psi = ps<br>
omega = o/ eta = e (I can work out from context which e/o it is)<br>
Everything else just put nearest English letter.<br>
