@behnam > IMHO, the text-underline-* properties are designed with only Latin-similar writing systems in mind, assuming there's a baseline and letters sit on top of that, which is not a valid assumption for Arabic scripts. See [`text-underline-position: under`](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-decor-3/#underline-under). The example picture is Latin but this property is designed primary for East Asian scripts. From your description, it looks like Arabic prefers it too. I just filed [a request to caniuse](https://github.com/Fyrd/caniuse/issues/3183) but WebKit and Blink (currently in beta) support this property. If you could see how it renders well for Arabic, that'd be helpful. Unfortunately, I can't see it working in Gecko/Edge @gregwhitworth @masayuki-nakano -- GitHub Notification of comment by kojiishi Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/727#issuecomment-281245718 using your GitHub account
