A proof of concept - that Hebrew can be both readable and beautiful at an incredibly small pixel size.
BACKGROUND: I used to have a much more active hobby of designing bitmap fonts. Little (usually 8x8px monospace) fonts designed for use in older 8-bit and sometimes 16-bit video games. It was kinda fun to hack ROMs to change the text fonts. Later, when Final Fantasy VI font became readily editable in 11px high proportional typeface, I started designing proportional fonts too. Nearly all my designs are revised in subtle ways over the years.

Perso-Arabic is extremely tricky. I'm also not all that familiar with its particulars. XD I've tried to make Arabic bitmap fonts in the past, but they've always been very simplified (no difference between initial, medial, final or isolated forms). Perso-Arabic is a lot more complex...unless you mean it should just reflect what is necessary to write Persian, Urdu, Uyghur, etc., and not all the calligraphy forms.
Georgia may be doable someday. I don't know.
