does anyone know where i can download some nice hebrew fonts?

Don't know where you can download them, but if you know of another computer that has them, you can copy them and put them on yours very simply

It's a TTF, so I'm pretty sure it is.

Same font either way.

The EXE probably 'installs' the font in case you don't know how to.

Reviving a really old thread.  I have a document with Hebrew fonts that word is not recognizing.  Highlighting and switching to a font word has is not helping. Any suggestions how-to convert it?

Do you know which font was used? What do you see when you select Arial as the font, or another font that has multiple character sets included within it?

@exgingi It says DavidD when I highlight it switching to Ariel or another font it just switches to other random winding type characters

Actually when I switch it to a font like Ariel it just turns into rectangles

That means that DavidD uses non-standard encoding. This might be a Dagesh font.

So any idea how to fix it?

If you have (or are able to get your hands on) Dagesh, you should be able to open it there and change.

Otherwise let me do some research on this tomorrow.

I'll check. Thanks so much!

This might be DavkaWriter rather than Dagesh (still looking further into it).

See if the attached will help.
