58 of them to be exact, and some of them are very cool: cursive, Paleo-Hebrew, fonts mimicking the writing style of particular Dead Sea Scrolls, etc. They are available here, via the Open Siddur Project. See the bottom of the linked page for installation instructions and examples of the fonts. From the Open Siddur page:

To aid in the dissemination of free/libre Hebrew fonts, the Open Siddur Project now offers, gratis, a FONT PACK. Fifty-eight free/libre and open source licensed, Unicode Hebrew fonts, ready to install. Enjoy them. Share them. Learn from them. Modify them.

6 fonts supporting the full set of diacritical marks (vowels/nikkud and cantillation/ta'amim).
11 fonts supporting niqud (w/out ta'amim)
42 fonts (not intended for use with niqud)
1 font of dingbats
7 Non-Hebrew Open Source Unicode Fonts

They should work on a Mac or PC. If you already have a unicode Hebrew keyboard installed, you don't need to install the one that comes with the font pack. The fonts will work just fine with your current keyboard. I use Logos' keyboards.

SBL Hebrew font is also unicode compliant and available here; the font license is only slightly more restrictive. Tyndale House's Ezra SIL and Cardo fonts are nice as well (Cardo is especially nice for Greek). Tyndale House's fonts are included in the Open Siddur font pack, or you can download them here.

Keep in mind that some of these files download as compressed (zipped) folders. After the zipped folder has downloaded, you have to right click it and click 'extract all.' When the files are extracted, look for the actual font file (usually a .ttf file). Drag and drop that file into your system's font folder (usually labeled 'Fonts'). I added this folder to my 'Favorites' in Windows Explorer for easy access.

It is currently scheduled for Friday, September 7, 1:00-3:00pm. It will be two hours long (1 hour, break, one hour), and those who attend will be split into two groups based on what operating system you use.

Now you can type ancient Hebrew alphabets right to left,
with proper line wrap and full justification.

Welcome to LaserPaleo-Hebrew in Unicode for Windows and Macintosh (LaserPaleo-HebrewU). This exciting product provides ten professional-quality Unicode-encoded TrueType® Paleo-Hebrew alphabet fonts for typing ancient Hebrew character shapes. Included in LaserPaleo-HebrewU are fonts containing the character shapes of the inscriptions found in level VI of the Arad excavations, the Gezer inscription, the Samaritan inscription, the Zakkur inscription, and the inscription in the Siloam tunnel. There is a font containing the character shapes of the Lachish letters written on potsherds, and there are three fonts containing the character shapes of Old Phoenician. Finally, while not Hebrew, included is a related font containing the character shapes of Imperial Aramaic.

Since the fonts are Unicode-encoded, users can type right to left with proper line wrap and full justification of the Hebrew text. The user may switch back and forth between Hebrew, English, and the other supported languages simply by toggling between the included Hebrew and English software keyboard drivers (keyboard resources). When you select the Hebrew keyboard, input will automatically be right to left. When you select the English keyboard, the input direction will automatically change to left to right. Users may combine ancient Hebrew with text from any other language supported by the fonts or by your computer's Operating System. All this can be done with your regular physical keyboard; you do not need to buy a special keyboard to use LaserPaleo-HebrewU fonts.

These alphabets are easy to type because the fonts are arranged phonetically, following the US keyboard as closely as possible. Also, the font layouts are compatible with the LaserHebrew® in Unicode fonts. Keyboard layout charts are provided to help you learn the layouts of the fonts.

LaserPaleo-HebrewU for Windows and LaserPaleo-HebrewU for Macintosh are compatible with each other. Documents typed with these fonts may be transferred back and forth between Windows and Macintosh with no conversion necessary as long the fonts are installed on both computers, and compatible software is used. (Please be sure you understand the System Requirements for Windows and Macintosh before you order.)

Cost: US$ 149.95 for all ten alphabets, or $50 when purchased with LaserHebrew Professional in Unicode; or $49.95 for individual alphabetsOrder
