Abstract #
This article is intended for translators working with bidirectional text in plain text format, primarily in the UI/UX domain. In this article, we will delve into the concepts of directionality, RTL and LTR text, and how they interact when combined. We will further understand how computers handle bidirectional text, the challenges they face, and how we can help them cope with their occasional shortcomings.
