    HEBPAR seems to be a non-standard font that maps Hebrew to Latin characters.  You can try to install it just like any other font, putting the file in LIbrary/Fonts, but whether it will work with any particular app is not certain.

     

    I strongly recommend you not put non-standard stuff like this on your machine.   Everybody these days should be using standard Unicode Hebrew, for which OS X already has a number of fonts, and which you write by activating the Hebrew keyboard in system prefs/language & text/input sources.
