S shrs Member Jun 16, 2021 #1 Hi guys! I had a question that I would be grateful if you could answer. Does the BCTextEngine library support right-to-left attributes for Arabic and Persian languages?

Click to expand... Hi Erel and thanks for the reply. one idea! Can't words be used instead of letters in these languages? That is, instead of examining the letters and printing each one of them, the words should be examined. Typing words in these languages does not require examining the letters separately. Upvote 0

S shrs Member Jun 18, 2021 #4 Hello again. Erel I have a module here that is used to display Arabic and Persian words correctly in Android below 3. Is it possible to use this module to display the words of these languages in this library? Thanks for checking this out too.
