IE7 text order is wrong for Hebrew and Arab and likely all Right To Left languages.
Please go to some Hebrew site like news.walla.co.il and see.

PowerPoint Viewer 2007 is also directed the wrong way.

Wrong direction is something like if in English instead of seeing English you would see hsilgnE. And to top that the letters are a bit overlapping in a wrong way.

Hi,

This might be related to the following...have a read of these threads;

You might consider emailing your query here to info@codeweavers.com asking
them if they know if there's any further improvements here that they know of
with the upcoming crossover-9.0 release.

Cheers!

You'll probably need to add Hebrew as an Environmental Variable to the ~/.cxoffice/bottlename/cxbottle.conf file, as per this article:

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, but this is not it.

Please try opening a Hebrew web page and compare how it looks in IE7 to how it looks on any other browser.

For example try this site: news.walla.co.il

The same problem happens with pptx powerpoint files.

PS. I have no trouble writing in Hebrew in these apps.
