By default, components do not support bidirected text.
To enable bidi support, assign RichViewEdit1.BiDiMode = rvbdRightToLeft (or rvbdLeftToRight).

Justify in paragraphs is not supported when bidi support is enabled (treated as left). Other types of paragraphs must be imported correctly.
Please send me RTF file.

There are 2 problems with this document.
1) Justify alignment. As I said before, it is not supported for bidirected text, treated as a left alignment. I made modifications: if paragraph is RTL, it will be treated as a right alignment.
2) BiDi properties of paragraphs were not read from RTF.

I made these fixes, now this document is loaded as shown below

Fix will be uploaded on the next update.

1) Fixed version will be uploaded for registered TRichView users. I do not know how soon, but before the New Year. You do not need to change any setting. In the current version, just avoid using justify alignment, use left or right alignments instead.
2) Sorry, I do not understand your second question.

open, load, import for arabic documents

when I was applied, set RVFParaStylesReadMode = rvf_sInsertMerge or
rvf_sInsertMap for bidi, not correct, (aligment, parastyle, textstyle)

only support, correct, run = rvf_sIgnore

not:you can research but now, not important because you made these fixes for rtf

3- for this documents (arabic.rtf)
please could you modification, support Justify in paragraphs for bidi as parastyle aligment in the msoffice (winword),

Justify alignment:for arabic, bidi.. parastyle (Justify and right)
Justify alignment: for english. turkish, latin... parastyle (Justify and left)
as ms word

I see your uploaded image (http://www.trichview.com/support/files/arabic.gif) very good text but paragraphs only as right justify

You cant make only right,
you must be: right and Justify, (justified) as ms word

I will serching, looking your modification
thanks

Value of RVFParaStylesReadMode is used when loading and inserting RVF (not RTF) files.
rvf_sInsertMerge and rvf_sInsertMap work correctly only if the document contains styles (i.e. it was saved when rvfoSaveParaStyles is included in RVFOptions).
The same for text styles.

May be you did not include rvfoSaveParaStyles and rvfoSaveTextStyles in RVFOptions?

As for justify alignment for bidirected text, it will be implemented sooner or later, but not in very near future.
