Text boxes are a common way to orginise text and images in a document.
When importing a rtl document from word XP. text boxes always flip position- the
one on the right moves left, and vice verca.
A few common examples:
* Doc1.doc - contains only two text boxes. One marked "left" and the other
"right". Notice how they flip their positions when opened in OO.
* text_pic.doc - Few RTL Hebrew text paragraphs, that wrap around an image in a
text box. Notice how in OO the image is the RIGHT of the text instead of in the
left.
* calender.doc - this is a simple calender created with Hebrew word XP calender
wizaerd. The design is heavy on text boxes, which hold all the elements in
place. Notice that when opened in OO, the image is to the RIGHT of the calander
instead of to the LEFT, and the month and year text boxes flipped locations.
