Hi, A friend of mine asked me for a solution to type weekly "daf-kesher" for his boy's school. His requirements are pretty basic - all interface to be on hebrew, basic text editing, rashi fonts, nikud, way to scan or transfer photos from a camera and embed them into the document.
He has no prior experience with computers, so re-learning is not an issue here. Ubuntu with hebrew-enabled intertface and libreoffice so far fit the requirements. So far he has not mentioned "responsa" or similar, which would stop ubuntu approach in its tracks. I am concerned on the nikud part, e.g. how well libreoffice supports it. Googling shows rendering issues. The https://bugs.freedesktop.org is down at the moment, so I could not perform more detailed analysis. Can someone testify on the level the hebrew nikud is supported in the libreoffice? Also, the page with nikud extension for openoffice is down: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/nikud Does anyone know the where I can download up-to-date version of the extension? -- Arie
