Hello!
hebrew.dvi says, on page 59,  under
"The font definition files (in HE8 encoding"
It uses OmegaHebrew font for regular font, Old Jaffa font for italics shape
and small-caps, Dead Sea font for Bold face, and Tel Aviv for Bold italics"

I guess this is either an error, or something pertaining to the past.  The
continuing paragraph shows that actually david fonts are used for all those
variations.

How should the user use other font families (apart from david) from Culmus?
You (Ron) have suggested
   \fontfamily{...}\selectfont
Can you send me the exact syntax which shifts to other font
families from Culmus?  And, once a user selects a font family,
will the commands   \textbf   \ textsl   etc   give him the suitable
variations, pertaining to the family he currently uses?
