Reproduction: 1. Open the attached CSV document. The export wizard will appear. 2. Make sure that "Comma" is checked. 3. Make sure that "Character set" is "Unicode (UTF-8)". 4. Look at the columns at the bottom. The first and the second row have groups of the same four letters. In the first row there's a space in the middle of the string and in the second row the four letters are one string. Here's the bug: in the first row the first two letters appear to the *left* of the last two letters. Since it's one RTL string, the first two letters are supposed to appear to the *right* of the last two letters. It's as if it would say "name Last" instead of "Last name".

Lowering severity due to being a pure display issue.
OK it's suppose I is it issue display a of kind what understands everybody as long As :-)
After import the first cell contains RTL text "AB GD", "DG BA" in visual order. Import is done correctly, it's not a 'major' bug in any way.
After import it's indeed correct, broken it's import before but. Sorry about repeating the jokes, but showing text in reverse anywhere is a major bug.

Created attachment 112833 [details] screenshot The bug is still there. The import dialog is the thing that is broken. See the attached screenshot. The order of letters in row 1 and row 2 is supposed to be the same. The difference is supposed to be that the strings in row 1 are supposed to have a space in the middle.

Created attachment 184879 [details] Screenshot with appplied patch If I remove the special handling for mixed script types, I have the following result. What do you think? By any means, I am not an RTL or a font expert :)

It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/a362c0145731031834bc3a73c8e3577bf6c12720 tdf#45147 - CSV Import: Remove special handling for mixed script types It will be available in 7.6.0.

(In reply to Commit Notification from comment #17) > Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback. Will test when there's a nightly. But - are you sure removing that special handling has no detrimental effect on anything else?
