Hi, 1. Thanks a Lot for your valuable help. I was struggling on R&D for 3 days with this issue. Finally you solved my problems. Thanks to iText for quick response. 2. But the another issue is, if it exceeds the cell limit the English characters & Arabic characters are printing in collapse order. Means some English chars comes first & some Arabic chars comes second & again balance English chars comes next. Kindly provide the solution for this too.
Thanks & Regards, Raja Mohammed. -----Original Message----- From: 1T3XT info [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, February 03, 2010 5:13 PM To: Post all your questions about iText here Subject: Re: [iText-questions] How to write arabic charcters as Joint characters & Right to left format even if it comes along with english word Raja Mohammed wrote: > Hi, > 1 .
