Hi Elishai,

Thank you for your message and apologies for the delay in response. 

Generally speaking, reports can be customized via programming and perhaps 
others may have some input on how to change the orientation of the text in 
reports, but your question probably speaks more to the need for more 
integrated internationalization of the Arches interface to allow for 
enhanced handling of multilingual interfaces, including those that feature 
right to left languages.  The Arches v5.1 code allows for text 
translations, but there are several members of our community who are in 
conversation about more integrated and enhanced internationalization of the 
Arches interface and database, which could include support for what you are 
seeking to do with your reports and more.  We are currently looking for 
funding contributions towards this important development work.

One organization you should keep an eye on is EAMENA (Endangered 
Archaeology in the Middle East and North Africa). They have been working on 
translations for their Arches v3 implementation (which is bilingual in both 
English and Arabic), so they may have some helpful points of information 
for you. EAMENA is also one of the contributors in our community that is 
part of the discussion around more robust internationalization of Arches. 
They are currently in the process of upgrading to Arches v5.

Here is a link to an article for more information about their process:  
https://eamena.org/article/translating-eamenas-platform-arabic-challenges-and-solutions
 

We hope to have more information about these internationalization efforts 
in the coming months. Otherwise, we would love to have your input on how 
best Arches can suit these needs, and as always, welcome contribution to 
these efforts.


All the best,

Lindsey

Getty Conservation Institute, Arches
