3. select Cyrillic(Win1251) for pages in CP1251 or User Defined for webpages in KOI8.

Lastly, some web pages specify specific font faces; if you don't have those fonts faces installed you won't be able to see the pages properly.

To configure MS Internet Explorer (MSIE) 2, 3, 4

MSIE Version 2
This version of MSIE does not have any capablities for using Cyrillic fonts. We recommend you download a newer version of a web browser from either Netscape or Microsoft.

MSIE Version 3

1. On the View menu, click Options
2. On the General tab, click the fonts you want in the Proportional Font and Fixed-Width Font boxes

Tips:

• Some pages use predetermined colors and fonts instead of the ones you specify.
• Microsoft's Native Language Support (NLS) module (available for no cost from their website for Win95 and WinNt) provides basic fonts and installation programs which work better with their browsers.

MSIE Version 4
In development ...

To configure AOL Browsers to show webpages in Ukrainian In AOL's Windows 3.1 WWW browser the fonts are hard-coded and cannot be changed. However, you can access the web through AOL using another browser. It is recommended that you install one from Netscape.
