Description Uwe Jochum 2008-04-27 15:43:10 UTC

Version:           1.4 (using KDE 3.5.9)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs
Compiler:          i586-manbo-linux-gnu 
OS:                Linux

Kdvi doesn't display properly all hebrew letters when hebrew is produced with cjhebrew, which is a LaTeX package. Some letters, as for instance Aleph, are displayed, others are not. I verified this using xdvi as an alternative: xdvi has no problems in dealing with hebrew letters produced with the cjhebrew package. So this is perhaps indeed a kdvi bug. Interesting also, that kdvi doesn't have a problem with hebrew in general: when hebrew is produced using the arabtex package, everything is fine in kdvi (and xdvi). So this seems to be some coding issue and incompatibility between kdvi and cjhebrew.

kdvi is no longer maintained since KDE SC 4, and its functionality is replace by okular.  If the issue in this report still exists in or apply to okular in KDE SC 4.10.5 or higher, please reassign the report to okular product or create a new report against okular.
