It turned out there were still many issues left since my last post. (one of them I blogged about in the previous post).

Big Thanks to Zayed’s for testing and reporting issues.

There’s still much to do, but the biggest show-stopper now is when english words cross line boundaries (which is something I didn’t think about before).

This could arguably be the intended behavior: depending on whether we want or don’t want automatic paragraph direction detection.

However, the real issue underlying this is that scribus has no “RTL” mode. There’s something similar, but it’s hidden deep in the properties box, and it reverses everything, on the character level.
