--- Comment #3 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Regina Henschel from comment #2) Noting the use of `text:span` I am reminded of HTML span, and HTML in general. In that standard, the language is an attribute separate from the style (e.g. `<p lang="de-DE" style="bunch of CSS here">`). > In case of family "text", the properties are contained as attributes in a > <style:text-properties> element (16.29.29). Yes, I see: https://docs.oasis-open.org/office/OpenDocument/v1.3/os/part3-schema/OpenDocument-v1.3-os-part3-schema.html#element-style_text-properties So, fo:country and fo:language should be removed from style:text-properties. And they should be otherwise settable on text:span's, and probably some other text:XXXX elements. And maybe even other elements. And - styles should be able to carry properties for multiple languages, in multiple language-groups. > If you want, that your style "Emphasis" does not include the language, then > simply do not specify the language in the style. But then - how would the Emphasis style use different font properties for Arabic text and to Hebrew text? Anyway, I believe it should not be _possible_ to specify a language as part of a style; I claim this is a design mistake in the ODF spec. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
