If you install the Office with LOCALE set to hebrew, then the office installer thinks you're running a Hebrew/Arabic version of Windows, and installs this part. For the purpose of testing, I re-installed here crossover office with hebrew LOCALE. Hebrew works perfect (including ctrl shift), but while being in hebrew in rtl mode (not push mode), the english words that I was typing became in reverse. example: world hello ���� ���� which should be: hello world ���� ���� but that doesn't really bother me at this moment very much, as long as I can type my hebrew docs... :) > All the above points aside, I do have a question about CrossOver's > license.
