Description

The Javadoc for OdfTableCell.setHorizontalJustify is wrong. It says to use values like "left" and "right" (which makes sense to the user who is used to seeing those words in the OpenOffice and Symphony editors).

However, the API actually expects values like "start" and "end". While this may be what ODF does under the covers to support bi-directional languages, this is not what the programmer would expect.

So two issues here.

1. The Javadoc is currently wrong

2. It would be better in this case if the code matched the Javadoc really wouldn't it?
