Build International Reports with RTL Support

December 12, 2023

Make sure your reports display correctly in languages that are written from right-to-left, such as Arabic and Hebrew.

RTL (Right-to-Left) support refers to the ability to accommodate languages that are read from right to left, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu, Kashmiri, Pashto, Uighur, Sorani Kurdish, and Sindhi. This feature ensures that reports can be created, displayed and printed correctly in RTL languages, which is essential for global applications and for users of RTL languages. It involves mirroring the layout and ensuring proper alignment and ordering of text.

Several ASP.NET Core Reporting components provide RTL (Right-to-Left) support including:

DevExpress Reports offers native RTL support for bi-directional text layouts.
ActiveReports.NET by MESCIUS offers an intuitive reading experience for users of right-to-left languages.
Telerik Reporting provides seamless right-to-left language support, enhancing user experience and accessibility.
Stimulsoft Reports.Web ensures a fluent and visually appealing experience for right-to-left languages.
