Hebrew with NWE 2.5 alpha 4

I was attempting to produce pointed Hebrew, only to find that (with 2.5 alpha 4, using OS 10.3.9) the New Peninim MT font which I specified was altered to Lucida Grande when the pointing was added. This did not happen in NWE 2.1.3. Having taken some time to find a good, legible, Hebrew font, I am no...

Thank you for your advice & encouragement. THANK YOU FOR FOOTNOTES THAT SEEM TO WORK PROPERLY. My computer uses OS 10.3.9. You mention that NWE 2.5?4 really requires OS 10.4. Is there anything else that works better, apart from writing from the right? After the experience of one of your correspo...

Is there any news?

Once upon a time, you were going to cure all ills by the end of April, or early May. No more problems with unstable columns when saving documents.

Why is your program so unreliable? This morning (7.2.'05.), after much effort with it, during which it quit, while I was adjusting the Page Setup figure to fit more onto the page, and then proceeded to refuse to print all the page, (I tried again, later, and found that altering the Page Setup figure...

Type-size when saving documents

A problem concerning saving documents: You can opt for a type-size by increments of 0.1 point, through the dialog-box (though not through the palette). Upon saving text set in (e.g.) 11.8 points, and re-opening the document, it is reduced to 11.5 points. This makes the application less useful than i...
