To display on the canvas you will need to select a font which has Hebrew glyphs like Cardo: http://scholarsfonts.net/cardofnt.html Qt will grab glyphs from other fonts to display correctly in the Story Editor. Scribus does not, so when you select a font to display on the canvas and it does not have Hebrew glyphs, it will show red squares as missing glpyhs. Switch to a font that does and all is well. The same case applies to Greek as well. Cardo works fine for Greek glyphs as well. Peter
