About:
Ponomar is a Unicode-compatible font family designed for ecclesiastical Slavonic texts and other historical scripts. It provides comprehensive glyph coverage for Cyrillic characters, including many archaic and liturgical forms not found in standard fonts. This makes it an essential tool for scholars and linguists working with ancient Slavonic manuscripts and documents.

Key Features:

Extensive Unicode support for Cyrillic and historical characters
Designed specifically for ecclesiastical Slavonic typography
High-quality rendering for both screen and print
Includes multiple stylistic variants

Use Cases:

Academic research and publication of historical Slavonic texts
Digital preservation of religious manuscripts
Linguistic analysis of Cyrillic script evolution

Alternatives:

DejaVu Sans – General Unicode font with broader coverage but less specialized for Slavonic scripts
Gentium – High-quality academic font with good Cyrillic support but fewer historical characters
