The Ukrainian side of this web site uses "1251" fonts and relies on "user-defined" encoding.

This ensures that the site can be read by either Macintosh or IBM computers.

The information below, originally developed for Plast's Lisovi Chorty by Mark Brykowytch, will help you install fonts on your computer and adjust the encoding of your browser. Other fonts applied to the 1251 encoding have been found to be applicable to this site, but we suggest the "user-defined" encoding to ensure that the site is truly readable.

 If you already have these fonts and have applied them to your "User-Defined" encoding, click here to proceed further /
