Summary: RTL text is misaligned
Product: Batik
Version: 2.0
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: SVG Viewer
AssignedTo: batik-dev@xmlgraphics.apache.org
ReportedBy: ariel18@safe-mail.net
Please see
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=604306&aid=1652188&group_id=93438
for a discussion on this bug, relating to Inkscape. Basically, text which is
made in the right-to-left format (like Hebrew or Arabic) in Inkscape appears
misaligned in Batik.

I don't know. I'm not the expert, I just know that there is a problem somewhere.
I also know that Arabic and Hebrew should be right aligned (as is done , as the
text is written right-to-left. As you can see in the thread from sourceforge,
lots of programs have this same "problem". What you need to do is contact
Inkscape's designers and figure out where the problem really is.

[CCing the Inkscape bug]
As far as I know, the text layout is correct. Where the text is anchored and
which direction the text is rendered in are two different things. Section 10.9
of SVG 1.1 says:
The 'text-anchor' property is used to align (start-, middle- or end-alignment)
a string of text relative to a given point.
The 'text-anchor' property is applied to each individual text chunk within a
given 'text' element. Each text chunk has an initial current text position,
which represents the point in the user coordinate system resulting from
(depending on context) application of the x and y attributes on the 'text'
element, any x or y attribute values on a 'tspan', 'tref' or 'altGlyph'
element assigned explicitly to the first rendered character in a text chunk,
or determination of the initial current text position for a 'textPath'
element.
and for the "start" value (which is the initial value):
The rendered characters are aligned such that the start of the text string is
at the initial current text position. For Latin or Arabic, which is usually
rendered horizontally, this is comparable to left alignment. For Asian text
with a vertical primary text direction, this is comparable to top alignment.
So the anchoring of the text is independent of directionality. Test
text-intro-05 in the recently released SVG 1.1 test suite uses text-anchor="end"
on the text elements to right align the Arabic text.
Do you agree with this assessment?
