TIPS on Hebrew and Arabic DTP layout:
English is written from left to right as opposed to languages such as Hebrew and Arabic which are written from right to left.
When changing from a LTR (left to right) language like English to a RTL design (right to left language) like Hebrew and visa verse the following issues need to be taken into account:

- Source software: Hebrew is not supported by all the graphic software.
For example, in order to DTP Hebrew in Adobe InDesign you will need to use a special software version.
- Design: The design will need to be changed/Flipped to suit the new language format.
- Fonts: Most English fonts do not support Hebrew or Arabic, new fonts will often needs to be used.
- Pagination: The size of the Hebrew fonts is not similar to English this can sometimes affect the original paging of the document.
