Mark Hoffman, who is one of our list-members,  maintains a blog entitled "Biblical Studies and Technological Tools" to which attention has been called before as a useful resource for B-Greekers; I check it out regularly at http://bibleandtech.blogspot.com/

This morning there's an updated annotated list of conversion utilities that will help you convert older documents using so-called "legacy fonts" (including Greek and Hebrew fonts) from the pre-Unicode era into Unicode-compliant documents. The entry is entitled, "Greek Legacy Fonts to Unicode Converters" and may be accessed at http://bibleandtech.blogspot.com/2010/05/greek-legacy-fonts-to-unicode.html

Also of interest is an entry of yesterday entitled, "Cardo and Google Web Fonts," accessible at http://bibleandtech.blogspot.com/2010/05/cardo-and-google-web-fonts.html with information about the Cardo font and its creator, David Perry, with a link to Perry's site, "Fonts for Scholars: Latin, Germanic Languages, Greek, Hebrew and Linguistics" at http://scholarsfonts.net/ .
