I see exactly the same issue, with the latest OpenOffice 2 RPM from Fedora
Core 4. This problem only started a couple of months ago (one day, after I
upgraded to a newer RPM), and since then OpenOffice has been utterly unusable
for me. In fact, I was so desperate, that I even considered switching back
to LaTeX (unfortunately, I haven't had the time to deal with the Hebrew LaTeX
mess, so instead, I decided to stop writing altogether :-)).

It is *not* a font issue (because the spell-checker also sees the reversed
words).
