Editra documentation

Write for every audience

Multilingual editing

Create Unicode-rich documents, switch document language, and handle left-to-right and right-to-left writing in the same secure editor.

Languages and bidirectional text

Initialize a document language

Load the languages plugin only when the integration needs language switching. The plugin updates the editor's lang and dir attributes and exposes the same behavior through the command API.

const editor = await Editra.init({
  selector: "#editor",
  theme: "Word",
  plugins: ["languages", "formatting"],
  toolbar: "setLanguage | bold italic | alignment",
  language: "ar",
  direction: "rtl"
});

await editor.executeCommand("setLanguage", "fr");

Mix scripts safely

Editra preserves Unicode content across Word and Classic themes and across both <div> and synchronized <textarea> hosts. Direction can be set for the document while individual HTML blocks retain their own dir="rtl" or dir="ltr" semantics.
