Thanks for giving me the example. I added a white rectangle to it so that I could read the text ! The text remains "txet" (the adobe plugin gives "extt" !) when viewed but it should be "text". I rasterise with "java -jar batik-rasteriser.jar <file>" and create the png. I am on batik 1.5 with JDK 1.4.1_02 - my image is attached.
Hmm, I was using 1.3.1 and it works with that. It does not work with JDK 1.4.1 - We have seen some similar problems in the past because they 'upgraded' the bidi engine in 1.4 in the past when we have had problems we were doing 'bad things' - however in this case I think we are doing the 'right thing'. If you are interested in looking into this we set all the BIDI attributes on the text in xml-batik/sources/org/apache/batik/bridge/SVGTextElementBridge.java:1439
I don't know if I'll have time to look at this in more depth right now.

Hi Chris,
Works for me:

I now have this but it still fails.

</text>
Any ideas ?
Thanks

Hello
I am trying to get rtl-oriented text to work. I have batik 1.5 - in the readme it says that rtl text should work. Is there anything
wrong with my
example below ?
You need to add set the "unicode-bidi" property to "bidi-override".
<path id="t_32" d="M498376,252804L498399,252818L498627,253000" class="invis"/> <text> <textPath xlink:href="#t_32"> <tspan direction="rtl">My Text</tspan></textPath> </text>
