Showing html file with hebrew text on android emulator

Question

Hi,
I have local HTML files with hebrew text that I'm trying to display on a webview in the android emulator but I only get squares and not the actual text.
I guess it's got to do with fonts not being supported.
Is there any way to display non latin text on the emulator?

Thanks!

If it's simply an issue of missing fonts, you might try DejaVu fonts (http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/index.php). I haven't tried it, but instructions for installing them on a phone (which should also work for the emulator) are here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480964.
