My name is George, I think this is my first time posting on this forum, but I have been following it for years.
I am one of the sons of Father Shenouda from Rochester, NY.

I had a question.  Is there anyway we can get coptic font on iOS for iPhone, iPad, iPod?

Thanks,

Welcome to our forum and send our greetings to Fr. Shenouda

About your question,
You first need to download ttf font that support Coptic
most famous one is http://www.gnu.org/software/freefont/

Then you need to find out how to install this ttf font

If u still cant see Coptic unicode characters in your browser, try to make the "GNU Freefont" you installed the default font of your webbrowser

Hope that helps

Does anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hi Maat,
I don't have and i(thing) but I had android and had the same problem
only solution I could come up with is to replace its default font (the one android use by default to display all kind of text) with another font that support Coptic
I am not sure if that is applicable to ipad/iphone or not but maybe u can ask in iphone forum if its possible to change the default font
