- As Ilya said, let her try to read the text in some native KDE app, such as kwrite/kedit. - Make sure this text she tries to read is UTF-8 and not iso8859-8 (of course if it's required there's a way she could also view that, but why live in the 80s..). - Make sure she has 'UTF-8' enabled while typing 'locale' in an xterm. if not, export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8, LANG=en_US.utf8 or something similar.
