What a user wants to achieve

To read, write, and edit documents in right-to-left languages with the same clarity, comfort, and confidence as in left-to-right languages.

The editor should respect language direction and input behavior naturally, without forcing users to adapt their writing habits or mental models.

What success looks like

  • Text, layout, and interaction patterns follow right-to-left direction consistently
  • Editing, navigation, and formatting feel intuitive for RTL language users
  • Mixed-direction content (RTL and LTR) is handled predictably and legibly
  • Text input works reliably for RTL languages, including languages that rely on character composition during typing
  • Common editing tasks do not require special workarounds or hidden settings
  • Working in RTL languages feels like a first-class experience, not an afterthought
