God no, talk about losing your mind! You just can't, it would take you months to do even a smattering of "Hebrew," You'd need a special font, you'd need...nah. Far far far too much work.

At the moment, all the INLINE Hebrew is in teeny-weeny images. Standalone Hebrew can be Hebrew (or Arabic, etc.). You do have to be aware that in KF7, those standalone paragraphs would NOT be readable.

I have a would-be customer right now--wants to hire me for "consultation" who is blithely ignoring what I say about Thai. I wonder why I bother. He told me that since it "works on his Paperwhite, that proves it's fine." (SIGH).
