Dosemu runs the video card's bios' init routine, which loads the fonts
from the card's rom to ram, and since it's a long time since cards came
with a hebrew font in their rom, the bios actually overwrites the font
you wrote to the card with consolechars.
There are a few possible solutions -
1. you can use dos programs that load hebrew fonts (hebega.com).
2. If you only use text mode, use text mode dosemu - see
2.1.7. Video settingd in README.txt.
