> Does bibletime use any font? or only the installed unicode fonts?

Well, BibleTime can use any font that is available to KDE. Check out the
font installer of KDE in the KControlCenter. It makes font installation just soo
easy. The standard font that BibleTime uses is the standard fonts for all
applications that the user set in the KControlCenter. So if a language needs
special treatment (like Hebrew, Thai etc.) you need to install the fonts which
contain the necessary characters. They will then be available to the entire
KDE desktop, and you can select them in the BibleTime configuration dialog and
apply them to a certain language.
It does NOT matter any more if the fonts are unicode or not, thanks to QT
which does all the necessary transformations internally.
Did that answer your question?
