Hi. I know this matter has been discussed at least twice so far on this list, but I still can't seem to make hebrew work properly in AbiWord.
I'm using AbiWord version 1.0.2, compiled with bidi enabled, and locale set to he_IL.ISO-8859-8. First of all, I had to disable "font warning on startup", because of the annoying "can't modify your font path" error on startup. Now I installed a few fonts, including Win's Miriam and David, in /usr/local/share/AbiSuite/fonts/ISO-8859-8, and updated the fonts.dir and fonts.scale. The above two fonts appear in the fonts list when I run Abiword, but still no hebrew. These two specific fonts show blank squares instead of hebrew characters, and all other fonts (for example, Times New Roman) show gibrish (german-like e's and a's with dots and lines above). PS. I'm using Redhat 7.3 and KDE 3.0.0, and have no problems with hebrew in other places. Thanks, Itai ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
