There is a font in the menu, called Narkisim, that appears (in Latin characters) to be exactly what I am looking for for a poster application. Trouble is, the font can only be applied to Hebrew characters; using Latin characters causes the font to revert to some other one (Constantia).
How can I use the Narkisim font's Latin characters?

Fonts of non-roman alphabets often incorporate roman letters from some standard font. The one in Narkisim looks like Albertus, which has often been used on book covers..

Thanks grammatim.
The Narkisim Latin font, as displayed in the font menu, looks nothing like Albertus! At least not on my version. Narkisim looks stylistic, as if you could make the letters with strips of paper or matchsticks. Albertus looks very similar to Arial.
Is it possible I need the T.T. version of Albertus? (On my panel, it has the printer icon to the left of the font name.) If so, how do I get it?

Albertus looks nothing like Arial, so it would appear that you do not have the font installed.

Thanks Suzanne.
Please tell me how to install it, and get it if I can't find it.

I don't have Albertus installed either -- which is probably why when I type roman letters in Narkisim, it shows up as Times! Where I see Albertus is by double-clicking on the filename in the Fonts window, and also (too small to really tell) in CharacterMap. But not in BabelMap.

Albertus is not supplied with any Microsoft application. It is a resident font in many HP printers. If you got it with a printer, you would probably find the corresponding TrueType font on the printer installation disk.

But it's not Albertus that hmm wants, but a font that looks like matchsticks or paper scraps. An odd choice, some random display font to appear in a non-roman font!

Oh, I agree. I was just responding to what appeared to be the question here.
