all right to left fonts (hindi, arab, hebrew) don't show up,

It seems that all right to left fonts do not show up in the font picker. That might suggest some common cause. When choosing arab as the input menu, and selecting these fonts (nadeem, KufistandardGK), the fonts work while typing.
reassigned. Please describe what version OOo you are using.
Arabic and Hebrew fonts are displayed by name in the font menu in DEV300_m21 (Intel), and they input correctly when I enable an Arabic or Hebrew keyboard layout in System Prefs > International > Input Menu. I don't have a Hindi keyboard layout, but the Hindi font names display in the font menu. So I think it's reasonable to assume this was fixed in a later version. I'm marking this WORKSFORME, but if it works OK on PPC, it should probably be marked FIXED.
