Meltho fonts in Syriac

i to all, 

Those of you writing in Syriac under Snow Leopard may have encountered a problem (i.e., OS X refuses to use the Meltho fonts). 
After looking into the matter, this is the problem: Snow Leopard, for reasons it keeps to itself, does not recognise fonts with the ".otf" filename ending. 
In order to solve the problem and have the Meltho fonts recognised by the OS, you should simply change their name from XXX.otf to xxx.ttf. 
That would do the trick and you'll be able to use your Meltho fonts. 

Hope this helps.
