Description alonbl 2007-02-19 12:46:11 UTC
Hello,

When writing Hebrew letter followed by '-' followed by Digit you get different 
behavior between platforms... This is common for all writer and presentation.

The result in Linux (RTL):
<Digit><-><Hebrew>

The result in Windows (RTL):
<-><Digit><Hebrew>

The result of MSWord in Windows (RTL):
Same as Linux.

‎What is strange is that in Windows if I put Latin letter, it behaves like 
Linux... Although both are LTR, right?

Anyway... Expected result should be a consistant behavior of a redering in any 
architecture.

Microsoft has this problem when migrating from one version of Office into 
another... They have different rendering algorithm for different versions. So 
we already know this to be an issue, I mean every application render this 
differently... But at least it should be constant.

Thanks!

This is the same problem as Issue 33903, which is now fixed. The behavior is ok
in 3.0.0. We can close this.
