Description alan 2005-08-15 14:03:54 UTC 
In my Hebrew Windows build, mixed Hebrew/English text does not display properly
in the first-run screen. Note the attached screenshot. The English text
"OpenOffice.org" in the windows header is to the right of the Hebrew text,
instead of on the left where it belongs. Similarly, the same phrase in the first
two lines of the left pane is on the right edge, instead of on the left where it
belongs. This only happens in the Windows build. In my Linux build, the mixed
text is displayed properly.

Correction: The snapshot is not the screen asking about registration, but the
"Welcome" screen that appears before it.

We've worked around this with Formatting characters. Is this handled by the
Windows installer program, or by code within OOo?
Comment 7 hdu@apache.org 2009-08-03 12:17:09 UTC 
The screenshot looks like an OOo native dialog.
Comment 8 Tal 2014-04-01 08:50:10 UTC 
I recommend to close this bug, since I haven't seen SW Registration screens since OO 3.4.

Reset the assignee to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
