You may also want to have a look at:
batik.gvt.text.BidiAttributedCharacterIterator
as it may provide a least some of the low level functionality you want.
Also, if you can rely on JDK 1.4, you could use the java.text.Bidi class that should provide the functionality you need.

What do you think about it, is it feasible?I guess I don't know enough about FOP to say. There are a few 'SVG specific' things that are part of text layout in Batik (like text on a path), that might make it a bit more difficult than ideal. What sort of API are you hoping for, what do you provide what do you want back? For pointers to code, take a look at: ...batik.gvt.renderer.StrokingTextPainter ...batik.gvt.text.GlyphLayout GlyphLayout probably has most of the reusable code in it. Note that currently Batik does not doe BIDI text wrapping (although once the SVG Working Group narrows in on exactly how they want to do this it may be added). This may significantly reduce it's utility for you. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
