In LibreOffice,
Right click on the table->Table->Text Direction->Right-to-Left.
Now, does what you see seem right to you?
As a side-note, the OrgOdtStyles.xml using a LibreOffice that uses en-GB
(IN). So, there could be "issues" when it is used with "other"
languages.
You will be better of creating a .ott file that uses language and
country of your choice.
See Tools->Options->Language Settings->Languages->Default Languages for
Documents->Whatever.
I have seen recommendations of using CTL->Hebrew.
----------------------------------------------------------------
As an experiment, look at your *Messages* buffer and see where the
exporter is loading OrgOdtStyles.xml from. In the same directory, there
would be a OrgOdtContentTemplate.xml. Look for the "OrgTable" style
spec.
<style:style style:name="OrgTable" style:family="table">
<style:table-properties style:rel-width="96%" fo:margin-top="0cm"
fo:margin-bottom="0.20cm" table:align="center"/>
</style:style>
Add a style:writing-mode="rl-tb" to the table-properties. i.e., do this
<style:style style:name="OrgTable" style:family="table">
<style:table-properties style:rel-width="96%" fo:margin-top="0cm"
fo:margin-bottom="0.20cm" table:align="center"
style:writing-mode="rl-tb"/>
</style:style>
Now re-export. See whether things are OK.
Rememeber, the style "OrgTable" (which is an automatic style because it
comes from content.xml and not styles.xml) gets applied to ALL your
tables.
----------------------------------------------------------------
As a developer note, the ox-odt.el already can create automatic-style
for tables. If a table has a rel-width attr_odt line, it would use an
automatic style. So it is just a matter of few 15 minutes for one to
add support for how a table is rendered.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Since we have an exporter framework in place, the question I would
probably ask is what does LaTeX do. Meaning, is there a need to mark a
table as rtl when being exported to LaTeX. If yes, what would be the
specific attribute that the maintainer of ox.el recommend.
----------------------------------------------------------------
I will queue up a fix for this in my private repo:
http://repo.or.cz/w/org-mode/org-kjn.git
I WILL merge my fixes and improvements once Emacs has the current
release cycle for Emacs is over. If you try out the suggestions above
and give me feedback, I will factor in input in to my fix.
