Hi. A while back I finally decided to take the plunge and set up Hebrew on my Linux box.
Actually, it went pretty smoothly, and I now have Hebrew fonts and a Hebrew keymap - everything is working quite well. Today I was looking at some Hebrew web pages, and decided to print something out. I was disappointed to see that all I get on the printed page is some numerals and punctuation marks. (I used http://www.gov.il for testing). I googled around a bit and came up with the Hebrew Printing in KDE document on IGLU. I followed the instructions for making fonts available to ghostscript, and I checked using gs prfont.ps GS> /<font name> DoFont and I see the fonts I added. I started up kword, and created a simple file using the Nachlieli-Light font. I verified that I can see the font using GS> /Nachlieli-Light Dofont. Everything works fine. I printed the document from kword to a ps file. However, when I print it, none of the Hebrew shows up. I then tried to view it using gv. All I get is a blank page. Here's the first lines from the ps file: %!PS-Adobe-1.0 %%BoundingBox: 0 0 594 841 %%Creator: Qt 3.1.2 %%CreationDate: Sun Jul 6 14:30:29 2003 %%Orientation: Portrait %%Pages: 1 %%DocumentFonts: Nachlieli-Light %%EndComments %%BeginProlog % Prolog copyright 1994-2003 Trolltech.
