Right-to-Left Text
With GemBox.Document, you can work with documents that contain bidirectional texts. This includes languages that use right-to-left scripts such as Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Hebrew and Yiddish.
Besides read and write support for Word documents with bidirectional text, GemBox.Document supports rendering such text to PDF, XPS and image formats.
You can customize the direction of document elements by using the following properties:
The following example shows how you can convert a document with bidirectional text to PDF or other file format.
using GemBox.Document;
using GemBox.Document.Tables;

// Show line numbers on the right side of the page
var pageSetup = document.Sections[0].PageSetup;
pageSetup.LineNumberRestartSetting = LineNumberRestartSetting.Continuous;

// Create a new right-to-left paragraph
var paragraph = new Paragraph(document);
