re linux beivrit

I found that Word 7 on 32bit Mandriva 2010 through wine - playonlinux installation only gives limited Hebrew not all the options are available. Sorry can't say which options are and are not. 
I tried an old programme Davka 3 which believe it or not worked fine. It saves files as .rtf which can be opened by many word processors. It hasn't got all the hoots and whistles as MS Word but neither has Open Office Writer 3.2.

Sorry haven't tested with Hebrew. If you have a genuine .docx Hebrew
document to send me I'll try to open it next time I'm at work (sick
today).
