Hi Glenn

Thanks very much for that.

So the following should right align in the table cell?

             <table-cell  xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>

               <block-container writing-mode="rl-tb">
                 <block>
                   <inline>المدينة</inline>
                 </block>
               </block-container>
             <table-cell>

But  that didn't work in FOP 1.1 nor with
http://ci.apache.org/projects/xmlgraphics/fop/snapshots/fop-20140319.jar

(Refer May 2011 thread "Complex Script, BIDI text supported?")

cheers .. Jason

Per XSL-FO 1.1 [1]:

"Property writing-mode applies to: fo:page-sequence, fo:simple-page-master,
fo:region-body, fo:region-before, fo:region-after, fo:region-start,
fo:region-end, fo:block-container, fo:inline-container, and fo:table."

As you can, none of these is fo:block. You need to specify it on fo:table or
something higher up the tree. Note that specifying a RTL WM on fo:table
causes columns to be numbered from right to left, i.e., the first column
will be right-most.

Hi, What's the correct way to write align a block of arabic in an
individual table-cell?

I found that with writing-mode="rl-tb", it was also necessary to add
text-align="end"

            <fo:table-cell >
               <fo:block  text-align="end" writing-mode="rl-tb">
                   <inline font-family="Arial">المدينة</inline>
               </fo:block>
             </fo:table-cell>

thanks .. Jason
