RTL Encoding for Hebrew Bible

Post by DarrelW »

I must be missing something. How do I specify RTL when creating a Hebrew Bible? Thanks.

I think you just need to add a setting at the end "r2l=1"

Take a look at the wlc.ot Bible

Hi Jon,
I must still be missing something. I added "r2l=1" without the quotes at the end of my Bible file, but it didn't make any difference. I do notice wlc.ot is Hebrew apparently entered as RTL text, while the Bible file I have is not. I have converted BHSEk++.bib from BibleAnalyzer and it displays nicely in TW, just not RTL!
