Problem description: 

After importing hebrew document from MS office (.docx) text direction and alignment becomes LTR instead of RTL.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open document with hebrew text

Current behavior:
Text is aligned to left and text direction is LTR

Expected behavior:
Open as RTL.

Hi,

Text direction bug is already fixed. The fix will be available in 4.2. (see Bug 43093)

The font display issue consists of two bugs:
- LO missing support of MS Office 'Themes' (see Bug 64232)
- There is a bug in the fallback font display under Windows. (see Bug 62559)

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 62559 ***
