When exporting (copying to clipboard then pasting into Word), the Hebrew fonts do not display properly.  What should I download or do?  I am using a Mac.

(I don't want to use PDF because the footnotes are too large, and I need to make those smaller in Word.)

Thank you!!!

    I am not familiar with your source, but I've always liked the SBL Hebrew font.  It seems somewhat smaller than Ezra SIL which is another widely used Hebrew font (Don't ask me why; it just is).  For Greek I like KadmosU which is from the American Philological Society since it reminds me of the fonts used in my college Greek classes.  As a matter of fact, I use KadmosU as the default English font in my resources since it is very similar to Times New Roman (in the Latin section) and thus provides a fairly seamless transition from English to Greek and back again.
