Have you tried DavkaWriter (see www.davkawriter.com)?
You can do nekudot in Word? Whenever I try to just do Hebrew letters,
they end up switched around.
Davka has a lot of features of Word plus Hebrew. I've used it to mail
merge diplomas with Hebrew names as well as English.

A stamp collector came across Israeli stamps for Children's books
1984 (3 stamp set) and 1995 (3 stamp set), which are apparently based
on these stories. Does anyone have any further information about
