Step 1

Launch Adobe GoLive HTML generator application.

Step 2

To choose font encoding for a Web document, go to Edit - Preferences.

Step 3
In Preferences window select Fonts in the left window and Cyrillic in the right window.

Step 4
With the same Preferences window open, select Encodings to see what font encodings are currently active.

If you see only Western and Unicode encoding provided in the list, you need to activate other encodings.

When other encodings are activated, find Cyrillic (Windows 1251) encoding under the list of Cyrillic encodings.

Select Cyrillic (Windows 1251) encoding and click Default Encoding checkbox (see yellow highlighted field).

Step 5
Now, Cyrillic script is selected as a default script for all Web documents created with these encoding settings. Click OK to close this window.

Step 6

Cyrillic (Windows-1251) selected as a Character Set encoding will insert a "charset=windows-1251" code as the meta code in the head of your HTML file:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251">

which defines that your document is supposed to be encoded with Cyrillic characters on visitors' browsers.

Step 7

Having Cyrillic font encoding selected for your current document will add a new charset meta tag into HTML code of your document. You can check it by viewing the source (HTML) view of your document (click Source tab at the top of your GoLive document window).

Step 8

To start typing Cyrillic characters in your GoLive document, activate Cyrillic (Serbian) keyboard language settings by clicking the keyboard indicator icon in the upper right corner of your computer monitor (next left to Finder).

If Serbian language is not provided in the list of languages within an indicator, install it by following the procedures for keyboard language setup.
