Right-To-Left printing support

Bidirectional files can be either RTL or LTR files and in order to print correct RTL data, you must select the Enable RTL Printing check box which appears on the Printing tab of the Connection editor for the bidirectional 3270E default connection. Both PDF and non-PDF files are supported.

This check box is enabled if printing is enabled.

In the case of Arabic applications, enabling RTL printing enables the following two check boxes.
  • Enable Symmetric Swapping: If symmetric swapping is enabled, swapping characters are swapped with RTL file printing.
  • Enable Numeric Swapping: If numeric swapping is enabled, English numerals are replaced by Arabic numerals and Arabic numerals are replaced by English numerals with RTL file printing.
