Have you checked the ASV. The knowledge of the Hebrew wasn't very good at the time KJV was written. It was much better at the time of the ASV. You are never going to get a perfect translation but there were Godly men from both sides of the Atlantic involved in the ASV which is based on the RV. In an eBook the NT (which I have already posted) is easily separated even though both are the word of God. We can agree to differ on this point.

Fonts are an issue in the Hebrew and even then you are going to get a literal translation, in effect since as you point out is what it says, which you will have to interpret on your own with study so the same thing can be said for the English language version. The Hebrew would likely have to be images or PDF anyway.
