Subject:      negative logic of scalebox
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-8

I have Sivan Toledo's package for hebrew support, and I am using the IBM font.
I am experiencing a funny behaviour: the logic of \scalebox is opposite of the
usual, a 2 as a parameters creates a smaller text, and 0.5 creates a larger one.
I wonder if someone can elaborate whose fault is it.

Thanks,
        Dan.

\Large זה גדול \\
\LARGE זה גדול מאוד \\
\Huge וזה אמור להיות \scalebox{2}{ענק}. ממש.

\begin{otherlanguage}{english}
In English this \scalebox{2}{works}.
\end{otherlanguage}
