Thanks for your reply. After some more testing, it might be that the problem is local to my computer, but I will have to try it on a clean Mandrake install to check.
I tried to revert back to Culmus 0.93, as well as installing the latest bi-weekly development build (http://development.openoffice.org/releases/1.9.m49_snapshot.html) but I get the same symptoms. What might indicate a system wide problem is that I installed the MS fonts and it gives the same results. Here's a simple scenario the I use to recreate the problem: - Change the font to anything else than the default - Type some English text - it shows fine - Switch to Hebrew, type some text - As soon as I start typing, the font in the OO font box changes to Lucida Sans. - Switch back to English, type some text - The font changes to the previous setting.
