I have since switched back to Microsoft Word (360) since this is the best wordprocessor in terms of handling Hebrew (right-to-left functionality) references from Bookends, Styling and Export into InDesign. Basic things like styles, undo, formatting implmementations etc. Mellel just is not on the same level as Word, and I would say that anyone looking to build their own wordprocessor should at least use Microsoft Word as setting a certain standard of what should be. I tried also Scrivener and Nisus briefly but didn't find their support better than Mellel when it came to right-to-left support. That being said, the undo feature in Mellel was severely lacking and often didn't work, certainly undoing formatting changes didn't work. A number of footnote references from bookends were superscripted.
When I converted to rtf from Mellel, the Hebrew words were all reversed, I imagine that is due to it's specific right-to-left implementation. It is not like Microsoft Word not that it claims to be, but Microsoft Word sets a very high standard of what should be standard things in the industry.
