Hi,
I wish to know if the iBooks Author support languages which are written from Right to Left, such as Arab, and Hebrew.
Moreover, can it show those foreign letters?
Does it look okay, or unorganized?
And another small thing - can you upload a textbook, written by yourself, to your iPad without having a developer account?
iBooks Author-OTHER, iOS 5.0.1
R2L support is sketchy/lacking...
Yes, you can upload a textbook to your iPad without any account needed other than iTunes on your computer.
In iBA, use the Share menu, add to iTunes and then sync. You can also just preview there if you like.

iBooks Author can certainly display RTL scripts, but it has various bugs which make it unsuitable for composing them for many users. There is no setting for text direction and cursor operation is broken, making editing extremely difficult. Copy/paste may work sometimes, but iBooks has been reported to misplace characters and have other problems.
Does the iBooks Author support Right-to-Left languages?
