Instead of looking for a special font for hebrew transliteration I suggest
choosing a typesetting system which can apply arbitrary accents to any base
letter.

Of course, I have TeX in mind here, which is freely available for almost
every operating system you can imagine.

You can ask questions about TeX in the newsgroup comp.text.tex or in the
mailing lists info-tex@shsu.edu (to subscribe: send mail to
LISTSERV@SHSU.EDU containing the one line

and ivritex@taunivm.bitnet (subscription to LISTSERV@TAUNIVM.BITNET)

Yours, J"org Knappen.

Corel wordperfect for system 7 has several hebrew fonts. In fact Corel
system 7 has a number of fonts packaged with it. I would check some of
the shareware collections on the web. I know that Simtel has hebrew fonts
but that is for Dos.

There is a series of free fonts (Hebrew and transliteration) for Windows
available via ftp from Scholars Press:
