That hint only works with certain applications. It doesn't work with MS Word and I don't think it works with Pages either. The app has to support right to left before it can be done.

I usually tell folks to use a word processor such as Mellel which fully supports Hebrew, Arabic, and other right to left languages.

@ruchama teller

I can't help you with the Adobe programs, but take a look at Mellel above as it does support Hebrew. Also, the MS language package for Windows likewise supports right to left for Hebrew but that means using the Windows Word app.

Ah ok thanks for that Charlie.
Wasn't quite sure what OP was saying exactly. Saying All Programs, Adobe, Word and email, didn't know if they where separate or all Adobe and Word, but i do see Mellel would suit their needs :)
