Arabic fonts r-L
Hi all,
Just looking for information on the current status of compliance for Arabic
fonts, I know there is a side fork dealing with this but I have not seen any
update recently.
In particular
1. Has the R-L columns been completed?
2. Have the R-L numbering been complete?
Thanks
Kindest regards

I should have written
<fo:page-sequence format="١"/>
below instead of
<fo:page-number format="١"/>
I just checked and at present only the following values are supported with
the format property:
'0*1' | 'a' | 'A' | 'i' | 'I'
So is this the problem you were referring to in your message? In any case,
I've added ticket http://skynav.trac.cvsdude.com/fop/ticket/66 to track this
issue.

Theresa,
I'm not sure whether you are referring to a problem with correct bidi
treatment of the inline character areas generated by <fo:page-number> or
<fo:page-number-citation>, or if you are referring to the ability to specify
generation of Arabic Digits via <fo:page-number format="١"/>. The
former problem has been fixed, however I haven't taken any action to support
the latter yet.
A concrete example FO file demonstrating the problem would be appreciated.
Regards,
Glenn

Glenn, sorry I have not tested recently but the numbering when using <fo:pagenumber/> goes left to right or did when I tested a while back,
You said it was not working yet, I was looking for an update.
As per your email back in may

Theresa,
The current code in git://github.com/skynavga/fop.git DOES handle right-to-left column progression in fo:table. You need to ensure that the appropriate writing mode is specified on fo:table or on the nearest ancestor fo:block-container or on fo:page-sequence.
I have NOT yet implemented changes needed to reverse page numbering, but it is on my list of TODO items. Thanks for reminding me.
Regards,
Glenn

R-L columns are still outstanding.
What do you mean by "R-L numbering"?
