opening an OpenOffice file with Hebrew name, the file name appears as gibberish. in the folder it is read fine, but when i open the file, on the top bar of the document window and in the bottom of the screen it appears as gibberish.

It probably related to l18n l10n, but i don't know were to start troubleshooting this.

i use Ubuntu 10.10 with OpenOffice 3.2 Here is the screenshot

This is a Unicode problem, can you check the document settings and OO prefs and make sure they are set to the correct UTF-? setting for your language? Try comparing with a known good document.

I had a similar issue before a few years back. My work around was to reload the window manager using the Compiz Fusion Icon, available in Software Center. As to why this happens and if there is a permanent fix I do not know. Best of luck!
