I installed the ivritex-1.2-3. By itself it did not help.
Then I installed the fonts-type1-hebrew package from Mandrake 9.2. After I
installed it, all the Hebrew from my documents disappeared. I get the
following error: (repeatedly)
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 8000 --mag 1+0/8000 --dpi
8000 rdavid
mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for rdavid.
dvips: Font rdavid not found, characters will be left blank.
What should I do?
