            Bug ID: 126309
           Summary: Opening RTF document with Hebrew RLT (right to left)
                    text is shown with the text written from left to right
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
When I open an RTF document that contains Hebrew text that is supposed to be
written from right-to-left is shown as left-to-right text.

When I convert the same RTF document to a DOCX (using Microsoft Word) and open
that resulting DOCX file, the text shows correctly.

Apparently it seems to be an issue with the RTF import not recognizing the RTL
text formatting correctly.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open attached file Hebrew_RTL_TEST.rtf
2. text is shown from left to right --> not correct
3. open attached file Hebrew_RTL_TEST.docx
4. text is shown correctly written from right to left

Actual Results:
wrong text direction (left to right) for RTF file

Expected Results:
text direction should be right-to-left when opening an RTF file


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
