BUG: Basics of Akkadian: A Grammar, Workbook, and Glossary
Both on my desktop and on my mobile devices all cuneiform signs are in the standard Old Babylonian font. This is a problem because one of the features of Basics of Akkadian is that the student learns "how to read Neo-Assyrian script".
After I had installed a new neo-Assyrian font on my desktop it seemed to work all right (but see screenshot #2). However, this morning I discovered that all the signs were showing again in the Old Babylonian font. To further clarify: there is no program setting in Logos to change the Akkadian font like there is for e.g. Syriac or Hebrew.
Edit: In the screenshots you can see another problem: if you change the cuneiform font both the signs in the first and the last columns will change. One column should display the neo-Assyrian signs and the other the Old Babylonian signs.

For the curious:

But I'm illiterate in both sign systems.
Edit: I changed my curious ... this one's much better. Big-A doesn't have it, sigh; maybe because free.

I always enjoy learning of new languages/scripts in which I am illiterate and mute.
