Hebrew Presentations
Community58/100The Problem
Creating professional Hebrew presentations requires dealing with RTL text direction, bidirectional content mixing, complex script font configuration, and Israeli business formatting conventions. Without proper tooling, developers manually wrestle with XML properties in OOXML to get basic Hebrew text rendering right.

Generate RTL Hebrew PowerPoint presentations with correct bidirectional text, Hebrew fonts, and Israeli business formatting conventions.
npx skills-il add skills-il/developer-tools/hebrew-presentationsWhen to Apply
- When building an investor pitch deck in Hebrew for Israeli VCs
- When generating quarterly or annual report presentations with Hebrew content
- When creating training or educational slide decks for Hebrew-speaking audiences
- When automating presentation generation from data with proper RTL layout
- When producing corporate presentations that mix Hebrew and English text
Instructions
Step 1: Set Up the Python Environment
Install python-pptx:
pip install python-pptxStep 2: Configure RTL at the Presentation Level
Every Hebrew presentation must have RTL direction set at both the slide and text-frame levels. python-pptx does not natively expose RTL properties, so manipulate the XML directly:
def set_paragraph_rtl(paragraph):
pPr = paragraph._p.get_or_add_pPr()
pPr.set('algn', 'r')
pPr.set('rtl', '1')Step 3: Choose Hebrew Fonts
| Font | Best For | Style |
|---|---|---|
| Heebo | Tech/startup | Sans-serif |
| Rubik | Marketing | Rounded sans-serif |
| David | Government/formal | Serif |
| Frank Ruhl Libre | Academic | Serif |
Always set the complex script font (a:cs) for Hebrew characters.
Step 4: Handle Bidirectional Text
Use separate runs for Hebrew and English text. Numbers render LTR automatically within RTL paragraphs.
Step 5: Israeli Business Conventions
Investor pitch deck structure: Cover, Problem, Solution, Market Size (TAM/SAM/SOM), Business Model, Traction, Team, Competition, Financials, Ask.
Formatting: NIS currency symbol, DD/MM/YYYY dates, comma thousands separators.

Best Practices
- Always set both paragraph-level RTL (rtl=1) and text-frame-level RTL (rtlCol=1) for correct rendering
- Use the complex script font element (a:cs) for Hebrew text; without it, PowerPoint falls back to Latin fonts
- Use separate text runs for Hebrew and English segments within mixed-language paragraphs
- Follow the Israeli VC standard 10-slide structure for pitch decks: Cover, Problem, Solution, Market, Business Model, Traction, Team, Competition, Financials, Ask
- Format currency as NIS with shekel symbol, dates as DD/MM/YYYY, and use comma thousands separators
Avoid
- Do not use this skill for Google Slides or Keynote formats; it generates PPTX files only
- Do not manually reverse Hebrew text strings; set RTL properties and let the rendering engine handle it
- Avoid using only the Latin font family for Hebrew text; always configure the complex script font separately

Frequently Asked Questions
What file formats does this skill generate?
This skill generates PPTX (PowerPoint) files only. It does not support Google Slides, Keynote, or PDF output directly.
Do I need PowerPoint installed to use this skill?
No. The skill uses python-pptx to generate PPTX files programmatically. You can open the output in PowerPoint, LibreOffice Impress, or Google Slides (via import).
How does the skill handle mixed Hebrew and English text?
It uses separate text runs for Hebrew and English segments within the same paragraph, with RTL set as the base direction. Numbers and Latin text render LTR automatically within RTL paragraphs.
Which Hebrew fonts are recommended?
Heebo for modern tech/startup presentations, Rubik for marketing, David for government/formal documents, and Frank Ruhl Libre for academic content. All are available as Google Fonts except David and Miriam which are pre-installed on Hebrew Windows.
Can I include charts and images?
python-pptx supports adding images and basic charts. For complex charts, consider generating them separately (e.g., with matplotlib) and inserting as images.
