State of Right-to-Left language support in LibreOffice
Eyal Rozenberg
LibreOffice supports different languages and language groups, including
those languages written from right to left: Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew and
even N'ko and others.
It is somewhat of a tradition, once every few LOCons, for members of the
right-to-left LO online language-communities to describe the state of
LibreOffice' RTL language support, as perceived by users and QA
contributors rather than project developers.
This session will:
- Relate aspects of the usage experience of writers of RTL languages;
- Survey significant changes since the last state-of-RTL session - organizationally and code-wise;
- Illustrate outstanding "pain points" for RTL language users;
- suggest and re-emphasize avenues of future development effort for fundamental improvemtn in the support for these languages.
