well? is anyone is working on this bug report?
Shlomo, thank you for reporting this issue. You can easily customize the default font in Tools -> Customize -> Libreoffice Writer -> Basic Fonts (CTL) Does this solve your problem? => NEEDINFO
No The path to the basic font is Tools -> Options -> ..... I already tried it before opening this bug report my dialog with basic fonts is attached and some other images I even set it to LIbre... default (attached) No one of these fonts in Hebrew is related to this special font (attached) this font is rarely used in daily life

I don't speak Hebrew at all so take it for what it's worth, but here are my two cents regarding fonts in LibreOffice based on my experience with Chinese text: David CLM is an open source font shipped with LibreOffice [1], so it's expected to exist on every system with LibreOffice installed. On the other hand, Arial (your preferred choice, judging from your screenshot) is usually only available on Windows, and not on Linux or macOS unless the user explicitly installed it for compatibility reasons. My understanding is that the default font in LibreOffice out of box (without changing any settings) depends on locale. Search for "CTL_TEXT" in expert configurations (Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Advanced > Open Expert Configuration). So you should also provide the detailed version information about your LibreOffice (Help > About LibreOffice > Version Information). (In reply to Shlomo belleli from comment #8) > Created attachment 180809 [details] > the stubborn font This doesn't look like David CLM, at least not on my system, either in LibreOffice or from the Windows font preview. 1. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Fonts

Eyal, could you help with this report? Can you confirm the problem? cc: Eyal Rozenberg
(In reply to Dieter from comment #12) > Eyal, could you help with this report? Can you confirm the problem? No, I cannot confirm this. And - many people would have complained about this had it been a widespread occurrence. However, to be fair, I've only tried this in Windows 10. It is theoretically possible, though unlikely, that the bug manifests with Windows 7 ("6.1"). I'll ask someone with a Win 7 machine on the Hebrew channel to try it. Shlomo, have you seen this only on a single computer, or on my than one system?
Also note that the font used in the user interface is not the font you choose in the "Basic Fonts" dialog. That dialog is for the fonts used in the document, not in the UI.
Waiting for Shlomo's response.
I tested this on Win10 on several computers - and no problem Only on Win7 one computer, we don't have others with that ops sys - the error exists Shlomo
Now we just need someone with a Windows 7 machine...
Salomo, nobody could confirm the bug for more than 1 1/2 years. Is it still present unser Windows 7 and with the latest version of LO? NEEDINFO
The problem still exists that the fonts for Hebrew are not the right one
(In reply to Shlomo belleli from comment #19) > The problem still exists that the fonts for Hebrew are not the right one Can you post a screenshot of Format > Character... , in the Font selection tab? i.e. where we see the Western font selection on one side and the Hebrew font on the other?
