The fonts in the "freefont" package contains Hebrew.

The fonts in the "free-ttf-fonts" do *not* contain Hebrew.  The
"free-ttf-fonts" package mainly contains fonts with fancy designs.
But mostly they cover only English.

Yes.

You will get an error message when installing from the postinstall
scripts of the 9.3 font packages because they use

    %post
    %run_suseconfig_fonts

and the %run_suseconfig_fonts macro doesn't exist on 9.1 yet.

That's no problem though, just ignore that, you can easily run
SuSEconfig manually after installing or deleting some fonts.

If you have a fast network connection, you could try to install 9.3
via FTP.
