    Is anyone doing this?

    It’s working fine for me, except that I can’t print, event not to a PDF.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks a lot

    there is a post on the davkawriter forum on this. Basically you are looking for a wine printer, because davka is working on wine

    thanks a lot yankel, but that post just says that it can’t be done, which i’m not 100% convinced of

    are you saying that wine printers are different than the regular ubuntu printers, such as cups-pdf ?

    I am pretty sure that OpenOffice supports hebrew, and it will run native on linux, So if you can’t get Davka to work that is another option for getting done whatever you need.

    that would be libreoffice, nowadays. I suspect that davka can be configured to print to a printer or pdf. Why wouldn’t you be able to output the text at least to a postscript file? I don’t have davkawriter, so you will need to ask your local geek. If there is an issue, it is probably broadly across wine-running programs, not just davka so there may be a workaround online. That’s all I can say, Sorry.
