As far as I know, Hebrew doesn't work well with such solutions. It's  
kept in Visual order inside the PDF, because PDF is considered an  
end-product. So reconstructing it requires knowing where the lines end  
and converting each line from visual to logical. I think none of the  
existing solutions is written with an awareness of this, so Hebrew  
would be botched.
