Hi, I packaged Mandrake RPMS for the new Culmus 0.100 set and updated the fancy package to include the Ktav-Yad font.
If you didn't define the Ehad source then do so with: urpmi.addmedia 9.2-ehad http://ehad.berlios.de/pub/9.2/RPMS/ with hdlist.cz if you have it, update the list file: urpmi.update 9.2-ehad then install with: urpmi fonts-type1-hebrew urpmi fonts-hebrew-fancy You can get the specs and srpms from http://ehad.berlios.de/pub/9.2/ Known issues: 1. This will fully replace the previous version, so if you want both version you'll need to find another alternative. 2. I have a small issue with OpenOffice - if I select a text and change the font, it changes fine. But if I type new text, the font reverts to Lucidasans when in Hebrew mode (switching to English returns the selected font). It looks as if OpenOffice doesn't know the new fonts support Hebrew. The new fonts work flawlessly in KWord and Abiword. If you know any fix to this please let me know. --- Maxim Iorsh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Shalom rav! > > With shaking knees I announce hereby the new release > of Culmus fonts.
