RE: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Yoruba Font for Windows

Hello:

I am very sorry to be responding so very late to your request. I was just now cleaning out my account  and vetting e-mails only to discover this unread e-mail from you.  I really do apologize.

 

Yes, I do use an old, old Yoruba font which I obtained from Professor Yetunde Schleicher, formerly of The African Language Center, University of Wisconsin. She has now moved to University of Indiana Bloomington. She works with many different African Language fonts and should be able to assist you. Her address is:

 

Dr. Anthonia Y. Schleicher, Director

National African Language Resource Center OR

her Assistant Director, Akinsola Ogundeji @nalrc.Indiana.edu

 

Please let them know I had recommended them highly.

 

I tried locating a Yoruba keyboard while I was in Nigeria ast December to no avail. I will retain your e-mail address and let you know if/when I stumble on a program worth pursuing.

 

Good luck.

Hello,

My name is Oyebade Dosunmu, and I am sending this message on behalf of Dr. Akin Euba. 

I am looking for a downloadable, Windows 7 compatible software for writing
Yoruba with upper and lower diacritics in a word document. If you have
information on how to acquire such a software, I will be grateful for your
advice. Please contact me through the following e-mail addresses:

aeuba@pitt.edu

oyebadedosunmu@hotmail.com

Thanks,

Oyebade A. Dosunmu, Ph.D
