At "Shop", you can buy (a/o) Glyph for Windows. The Basic version (which I use in my papers) costs EURO 50. An extended version (with 6,900 signs) is also available, but at a price. I have found a (hardcover) book with a full listing of all the signs from the extended version most usefull though, and at EURO 25 quite affordable too. It's called the Hieroglyphica.
