[Bug 487442] Re: Missing support for RTL languages in RML-based reports

 

The patch of reportlab's lib based on fribidi is too unclean to be
applied at this stage for v6.0, but the good news is that the other part
of the patch with the font substitution in OpenERP (coming from
base_report_unicode) has been applied on trunk and will be built-in in
v6.

For the rest I will mark this item as wishlist and we will schedule it
for v6.1, as this will require a more careful implementation and
extensive testing...

Fortunately people that need it in the mean time can now refer to this
bug to find the workaround to implement it in their system. I also
updated the wiki page mentioned in the blog post, to link to the current
bug:

Thanks!
