It seems the problem is now solved. I used the free font editing software pfaedit (pfaedit.sourceforge.net) to convert a free Type-1 Hebrew font (culmus.sourceforge.net - released under the GPL) to ttf and it seems to work well. You can get the converted font from here: ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/kinneret/Nachlieli-Light.ttf Since the original font is GPLed, I assume you can include this font in future versions of TuxPaint. The author of the Culmus fonts is also in the cc just in case you have any questions. One more issue though - it seems that any attempt to type in Hebrew text (for the text entry tool) results in beeps. Can you please have a look at that? Thanks a lot, Dov.
