Dear Kino,
Thanks for the additional info.
At first I didn't understand that I should actually type each of the 7
characters \x{302}. When I did, it worked to a CERTAIN extent; in some
cases, however, it didn't get converted. I shall further investigate the
matter.
<Hebraica> is not a unicode font. Old, yes, mine is of 1998.

Best,
Takamitsu
