Written by Doctor Simcha   
  • Dr. Simcha loves invitations with Hebrew wording! These biblical letters remind us of the sacred source of this precious ceremony. It will also add flair and pizzazz to your work!

  • At medaberet ivrit? Having your invites in Hebrew may be a challenge if you can't read Hebrew of feel insecure with it! Treat this issue carefully. Check and recheck the text:

    • Names - check the correct spelling of names with a Rabbi, Hebrew speakers, relatives and family documentation.

    • Dates – if you are writing the Hebrew date on your invites, be sure to have it correctly. Check it also with your Rabbi or in a Jewish calendar. There is a wonderful free online tool - Hebrew date converter - which converts Gregorian dates to Jewish dates and vice versa.

  • Hebrew fonts - if you are preparing the invitation yourself, or would like to show your vendor some Hebrew fonts, here are a few options:
Hebrew Font Gallery (Judaism.com)

    • Your Microsoft word software should have some Hebrew fonts. On the top menu click on "Insert" and then on "symbols". Explore the scrollable menus; you should be able to find some Hebrew fonts there.

    • A rich variety is available at fonts.com Hebrew fonts.

    • Hebrew font softwares - Font Studio, with 59 True Type Hebrew Designer Fonts, and Hebrew Font Gallery, cheaper, with 25 Hebrew fonts.

    • Hebrew / English word processor software is the expensive option, but it is a good tool to have also after the simcha. The leading software is DavkaWriter Platinum 6 (Judaism.com).
