What you doing?
For Scripture quotations I can cut and paste from my Bible program. For
single words or short phrases in articles, I can manually enter Hebrew
text, but have to press the backspace key after each letter. To set the

*WimpWriteDir 1 from the Command Line sets everything to right-to-left mode.
To return to left-to-right, I have to enter 0 riDetirWpmiW* 8-)

There are two things you need to do.
1. Format your paragraph setting to right justified.
2. Set your language under Tools > language to Hebrew.
