Left to Right language problem on iKindle
Hello!
I am new to the forum though old by fighting this problem about mixing English and Arabic in the same document meant for the Kindle.
I am using Calibre to convert an MSWORD document with mixed English and Arabic (left-to-right [LTR] and right-to-left [RTL] languages) to mobi and epub ebooks. Every thing looks good. However when I try to read the mobi output on the "Kindle for PC" application, the RTL text in Arabic is reversed (LTR).

Is this a Kindle limitation?
TIA

Welcome to MR! I'm not sure about the inner-workings of how the Kindle reads a document. Maybe try the Kindle forum if you don't get an answer here.

Welcome to MR! I would also suggest you try either the Calibre or Kindle subforum (on the main forum list page)
