Due to the importance of the reference work users are advised of two presentational issues:

For correct display of diacritics download the Brill Truetype font Brill: see Help.
For correct display of Hebrew we advise downloading SBL Hebrew: SBL Hebrew.

Some of the lemmas use non-unicode characters to represent the Babylonian vocalization of Hebrew. There is a non-unicode font available that contains the necessary characters, but this is difficult to integrate with the Brill Unicode-based online platform. As a temporary solution in beta, the non-unicode characters are presented as bitmaps and a link will be added to the correct pdf-version of these lemmas, taken from the print version. In 2014, the online platform will be updated in order to enable the presentation of non-unicode characters and strings.

For your convenience, please find below the PDF for entries that contain non-unicode characters for the Babylonian vocalization of Hebrew.
