Re: [libreoffice-l10n] traditional Mongolian script support

I seem to remember that it is a verticalized for of Arabic script. The 
only solution would be to turn the fonts 90 degrees, and type it as a 
right to left script. you would see it turned 90 degrees in the screen, 
but you could type it and print it (you can always turn your monitor 90 
degrees :-)  ).
