Hi Nadav, Ido, Michael, and list-members,

Ido sent me a test document, which I tried on OOo 2.0 and 2.0.1 (both versions that I built from source). With 2.0, the word was reversed. However, on 2.0.1, it looked fine. I don't know what the bug is (was?) but maybe if you upgrade to 2.0.1, the problem will go away.

It seems that when I close Hebrew based document that was created or just opened using OpenOffice writer, some words appear to be reversed. Please note that I used Oasis documents and MS Office .doc documents. Both had the same issue.

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).
