Hebrew and the alternative between polyglossia and babel












0














I found some threads in tex.stackexchange about the possibility of writing in Hebrew with Latex (what, however, I already made with fontspec and polyglossia). The answers are an alternative: either fontspec + polyglossia or babel + utf8x. Now, referring to this problem (Xetex support for .otf features),
one finds oneself consequently in the (unlikely?) situation of using babel with fontspec. Is it possible to write very short text or single words in Hebrew in this last situation? Or are the incompatible?
