To add the right to left typing directional buttons and enable CTL (Complex Text Language) settings, do the following:

1. Open Writer and left click on the Tools menu and then on Options; the Options box will appear.
2. In the Options box, left click on Languages below Language Settings; the Languages box will appear.
3. In the Languages box, tick the Enabled for CTL box and press the down arrow to find Hebrew.
4. Left click on OK to confirm the directional buttons will appear in the Writer ribbon.Moshe
