I am venturing in to the wild here and it will take multiple iterations
for me to even get a "feel" for what needs to be happen. I am not even
sure what is right or wrong here. Anyways...
----------------------------------------------------------------
Further to our exchange on the emacs-devel list,
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-11/msg00134.html
I see that the file you passed me has no bi-directional markers
whatsoever. I think presence of markers would affect how libreoffice
would layout the table.
I suggest that you pass me an Org file, that has the right
bidi-paragraph-direction (as a local variable) and has the right set of
bidi markers.
(Furthermore, explicitly mark the org file as utf-8 coded. I am not
sure what coding system the attachment is coded to. When I view the
attachment in Gnus, I only see the latin characters.)
----------------------------------------------------------------
As for getting the table cells laid right, try this out.
1. Export a hebrew.org file to hebrew.odt
2. Open the .odt file in LibreOffice.
F11->Page Style->Default Page Style->Page->Text Direction->Set it to
"Right to Left".
I think that this would set the predominant direction of your
document. I believe, it would correspond to bidi-paragraph-direction
setting.
3. File->Save as->somefile.ott
Now in your hebrew.org file, add this directive
#+ODT_STYLES_FILE: "hebrew.ott"
This will make the exported document an R2L document.
4. Export again. See what happens
----------------------------------------------------------------
(The process is the same for setting your preferred font.)
