 ## Fonts
 Use the [**LanguageFont**](/uwp/api/Windows.Globalization.Fonts.LanguageFont?branch=live) font-mapping class for programmatic access to the recommended font family, size, weight, and style for a particular language. The **LanguageFont** class provides access to the correct font info for various categories of content including UI headers, notifications, body text, and user-editable document body fonts.

-If your app requires a different image to flip the image correctly, then you can use the resource management system with the `LayoutDirection` qualifier (see the LayoutDirection section of [Tailor your resources for language, scale, and other qualifiers](/windows/uwp/app-resources/tailor-resources-lang-scale-contrast#layoutdirection)). The system chooses an image named `file.layoutdir-rtl.png` when the app runtime language (see [Understand user profile languages and app manifest languages](manage-language-and-region.md)) is set to an RTL language. This approach may be necessary when some part of the image is flipped, but another part isn't.

 ## Handling right-to-left (RTL) languages
 When your app is localized for right-to-left (RTL) languages, use the [**FrameworkElement.FlowDirection**](/uwp/api/Windows.UI.Xaml.FrameworkElement.FlowDirection) property, and set symmetrical padding and margins. Layout panels such as [**Grid**](/uwp/api/Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.Grid?branch=live) scale and flip automatically with the value of **FlowDirection** that you set.
