Hello,

You can use that property with paragraphs and cells, not with span tags. If you want to use div tags a p tags, you need to enable the parseDivsAsPs option (https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/word-content/embed-html-Word-document-with-PHP).

These are the available values for that option:

• lrTb Left to Right, Top to Bottom
• tbRl Top to Bottom, Right to Left
• btLr Bottom to Top, Left to Right
• lrTbV Left to Right, Top to Bottom Rotated
• tbRlV Top to Bottom, Right to Left Rotated
• tbLrV Top to Bottom, Left to Right Rotated

This is a simple sample that set tbRl as text direction for one cell content in a table:

$html = '<table border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="600">
            <tbody>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td style="background-color: yellow">1_1</td>
                    <td rowspan="3" colspan="2" dir="tbRl">Rotated text</td>
                </tr>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td>Some random text.</td>
                </tr>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td>
                        <ul>
                            <li>One</li>
                            <li>Two <b>and a half</b></li>
                        </ul>
                    </td>
                </tr>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td>3_2</td>
                    <td>3_3</td>
                    <td>3_3</td>
                </tr>
            </tbody>
        </table>';
$docx->embedHTML($html);

You can also use custom paragraphs styles.

Regards.
