You don't say which bit of the interface is not showing the characters correctly, but 2 questions:

Do you have your language setting correct?
Are your files tagged with unicode-compliant tags?

Zivo: Hebrew works fine here with Nimbus-14.

When did you last update your fonts? Hebrew was added 30 August 2006.

It certainly is open.

and easy to edit

Because it is made to be used on a very tiny target environment, and is optimized for little space and speedy usage.

Why would you? You should use the BDF format for everything except using on target.
