Apparently, the issue is not just in writer, it's in the whole interface: Even text on the installation dialogue is badly directed: I don't know the architecture of OOo, so I don't know what element in the stack renders text in user interfaces. Is it the same as Writer's? The thing is, there are two issues at play: the direction algorithm (What you called auto-discoverable writing) and the class of a character (Strong RTL, Weak RTL, neutral, etc). See this for more: http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr9/ Sorry for the repetitive attempts to clear this up, I've just stumbled into this and discovered that OOo's issues with RTL are deeper than I thought, while I am still very unfamiliar with OOo and its code. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

In brief: Arabic characters + neutral characters = the whole thing should be displayed RTL. That is if they stand on their own and they are not polluted by other latin characters. Otherwise it is a bug, you shouldn't need RLE or RLM. To illustrate this, try opening gedit and putting the same sequence ( لا...) alone on a new line. You will see the correct behaviour. I don't follow OOo closely otherwise I would have discovered this, but indeed, I think OOo does need some serious testing from us RTL'ers. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To illustrate what I mean by this copy one of the problematic translation strings into Writer. Then toggle the paragraph's left-to-right and right-to-left preference. If the string's BiDi layout is influenced by the toggle and one of the resulting BiDi arrangements are not sufficient, then the translated string should be extended with RLE or LRE unicode markers. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
