POINT TYPE ALIGNMENT TROUBLE

I have an issue with Adobe illustrator, and the online help service didn’t help me at all

Here’s the deal:

When I type in English left to right, I can align the text to the horizontal center of the artboard.

BUT when I write in Hebrew (or Arabic), right to left, using a point type, the text will not align.

If I convert to area type, or if I change orientation of the txt to left to right, the text will align fine.

So the issue happens only when writing in Hebrew or Arabic, In right to left orientation, and in point type mode.

Yes, I tried different fonts, didn’t change anything.

HELP!
