Hi @Anonymous,

Please attach the SHX file also so I can test this for you. For some reason there are a lot of Hebrew fonts that don't work well but hopefully this is a different issue.

In order to be able to attach SHX fonts you need to compress them (make ZIP archive) and attach this archive here.

Hi Lia,

I'm not sure what you need to get, but I got the result which you can see here:

and in attached PDF file (as the proof of what I see on my Mac).

What I have done:

- copied all SHX and SHP font (shape) files from the attached archive - HEBREW_SHX.zip - to the folder on the support files search path

- opened the drawing you attached.

Hi Lia,

Sorry, but I don't speak Hebrew and don't know how to enter Hebrew text in AutoCAD. So looks like I cannot help you futher.
At the same time I noticed that some of the text styles in your drawing have "Backwards" (displays the characters backwards) option enabled, but some of them don't have such property. Maybe the case of the issue - "it get like i a mirror" - can be explained with this?
