hi,

I am tring to create a pdf, which contains some arabic data.I am able to render arabic letters in to the pdf but the flow direction is left to right, I want to change it to right to left. My contents are presented in multiple colum tables, I try to give run direction to this table but it is always the default "0". How can I change it to three so that it can be shown in the RTL?

I am not sure what the basic system is you are using. I can't imagine you are using table columns in decreasing order to effet right to left. And I wasn't sure whether you are a googler so this reference may be completely non-applicable, but here goes. Does this help in any way: http://geekswithblogs.net/JaydPage/archive/2011/11/02/using-itextsharp-to-correctly-display-hebrew--arabic-text-right.aspx
