This will do just about everything: Cyrillic, Greek, Graphics, English,
and Hebrew.  It is a bit pricy at $399.  I don't know hardware requirements
but you could call them.
 
Also:
Multi-Lingual Scribe.  This one has been on the market for a while and looks
top notch.  You can get a demo disk from them:

It is $350, and requires 512k and CGA graphics.  It supports all printers.
I have seen their prospectus and it looks very good.
 
And inexpensive route:  I don't know how good it is, but it is cheap.
