(More customer reviews)Dagesh Pro IV is a great tool for working with Semitic languages written right-to-left such as Hebrew and Arabic. It is, of course, suitable for your typical left-to-right Indo-European writing as well. The best thing is that it can handle mixed mode text without any problems. So for example, you can type up lecture notes, or scripture study notes in English with embedded Hebrew or Greek and Dagesh Pro IV will handle it beautifully.
There is a host of fonts for each of the languages to choose from and you can buy additional font packs if you'd like. It also comes with picture gallery of 10,000 photographs and clip arts that can be used in your documents.
The other nice feature is that it has clip texts of the entire Hebrew Bible, the Old Testament as well as Siddur, or Jewish prayer book. These texts are editable and can be easily included in your documents. The Hebrew Bible texts follow chapter/verse division as found in BHS, however there are a few isolated cases of a verse or two missing.
Overall, it's a very nice tool that allows you to do things with right-to-left texts that you could not possibly dream of typical text editors such as MS Word, WordPerfect or Open Office. Probably the only thing that I have against it is page/table formatting which is a bit clumsy and takes a bit getting used to. However, if you take your time to learn some of the tricks you will find out that while it does not have the most user-friendly interface for tables, it does offer other features you won't find in other editors. I'm not sure how it compares to Davka writer, which is another Hebrew text editor. I'm pretty satisfied with this one and give it a 4 out of 5.
