Syntax

public sealed class Direction : Enum

Set the reading direction of text in a Word document with Direction. LeftToRight is the default flow used by Latin scripts and most layouts, while RightToLeft lays out runs for languages such as Arabic and Hebrew. Apply it when a paragraph or run needs the opposite orientation from the document default. The add styled text example shows where run-level formatting is applied.

var direction = Direction.RightToLeft;
