after reading : http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Font-FAQ
to figure out where the issue lyes, this is what i think is happening...
 
when using a non-hebrew font (that has no hebrew glyphs) the wordart
font-substitution engine does not change to some pre-defined hebrew supported
font so it could display the glyphs like Writer's normal text engine does.

using the "Font Replacement Table" with "my defined font substitutions" it works
fine :-) BUT... i can not guess all the fonts out there ;-)

here are two samples;

using font "Andale Mono", some bizarre glyphs are located in the font table
position where hebrew glyphs should be and this is the result:

using font "Liberation Sans", no hebrew font table at all. so no glyphs are
displayed :

open type and true type correct hebrew fonts work fine :-)

i saw old issue reports that i'm not sure if the were supposed to deal with this
same issue:
