[mobile-devel] Hebrew font?

Yes, I'm running Swordreader v1.9 beta 1.
I solved one of the problems: By copying the Tahoma fonts from my desktop to my HTC Diamond \Windows\Fonts folder, what were boxes are now Hebrew characters. Unfortunately, they are not displayed in proper Hebrew order, right-to-left. Still, this is an improvement.

First, welcome to this list.  If you are using SwordReader with Windows 
Mobile on a Pocket PC then, yes you have come to the right place. 
Sadly, this edition which is the latest, does not yet support Hebrew (at 
all) or even Greek with accents.  Both are on the todo list, but please 
be very patient as there is only one developer, David Trotz, who is 
actively working on this project, snd he is to say the least, stretched.

I hope this excellent app. is useful to you in the meantime.  Keep your 
eyes open for updates.  This list should keep you informed.  Don't 
forget to say which app you are using when asking questions - there is a 
SwordReader list which is even more specific (assuming you are using 
SwordReader).

God bless,
Barry
