It won't, except in lucky cases. True.

Now that this is being discussed, recently I needed to use
vocalized Hebrew, and found that all that I tried was broken.
Is there a version of Java, or a Java function perhaps other than
Graphics.drawString(), that correctly handles vocalized Hebrew?
Is there a version of Mozilla / Firefox that correctly handles
vocalized Hebrew? With what font?
