Hi Eli, I think that we need to talk a bit more about the MS bidi to UNICODE bidi conversion problem for Hebrew .doc file conversions. I am sure that Arabic OOo is going to have the exact same problem also. I am also sure that this is a show-stopper in terms of using OOo as a Hebrew .doc reader. Can you contribute code or at least a specification for solving the problem? Regards,
