Uwe,

I have looked at that page and tried to get it to work in Windows using the instructions but to no avail. Here is what I have done in Linux:

1. I installed the Lyx package from the Ubuntu repository.
2. I installed the culmus fonts using a Debian package. I also have the ivritex package installed, so I am assuming that the culmus fonts are available to LaTeX, but somehow it doesn't find culmus.sty when I add "\usepackage{culmus}" to the preamble. I thought I would try to succeed with the default fonts. 3. I copied he_cua.bind to /home/[user]/.lyx/bind/ and selected it in the Tools-Preferences-Look and Feel-User Interface and clicked on save. I restarted Lyx.
4. I added "\usepackage{hebfont}" to the preamble.
5. I typed in some English, Vietnamese, and Hebrew consonants.

I successfully generated a DVI file this time (I'm not sure what I did differently), but the Hebrew shows up as just blacked out text. Is this a font issue?

When I add vowel pointing I still get "Package ucs Error: Please activate option 'combine.'" and "Undefined control sequence."

Any ideas?

Daniel

Hebrew is another story. I have Googled high and low on using Hebrew with Latex and Lyx, and none of the solutions have worked for me.

Have you had a lok here?:

This page is not only about Windows and contains some important links. But the procedure on Linux is similar to that on Windows.

regards Uwe
