Hi Authors, In the section "The advantages of OpenOffice.org" in the Guide - Getting Started with OpenOffice.org 3.x (and perhaps 2.x), for the examples of languages as example for RTL languages Hindi is quoted as an example:
Extensive language support. OOo's user interface is available in over 40 languages, and the OOo project provides spelling, hyphenation, and thesaurus dictionaries in over 70 languages and dialects. OOo also provides support for both Complex Text Layout (CTL) and Right to Left (RTL) layout languages (such as Hindi, Hebrew, and Arabic). This is inaccurate as Hindi, the Standard Hindi or its derivatives are usually written using Devanagari script (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devanagari) which is LTR. Only Urdu, is written using Persian script which is RTL. The language Hindustani or Hindu-Urdu can be written in both the scripts. Thanks, Vijay Govind
