When the alignment for a span is set to justified the HTML page does not show it's text as justified to both margins.
When you view the example you can see that the text is justified to the left but not the right.

Please follow the QtWebKit bug reporting guidelines when reporting bugs.

See http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/QtWebKitBugs

Specifically:

  - The 'QtWebKit' component should only be used for bugs/features in the
    public QtWebKit API layer, not to signify that the bug is specific to
    the Qt port of WebKit

      http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/QtWebKitBugs#Component

  - Add the keyword 'Qt' to signal that it's a Qt-related bug

Wow, what kind of weird encoding is that? Could you post a latin-1/ASCII file?

Reproduced in trunk against Qt 4.6.2 on Windows7 with attached testcase.

The following test case does not exhibit the behavior:

data:text/html,<p dir=rtl style="direction:rtl;unicode-bidi:embed;text-align:justify"><span lang=AR-SA>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Fusce laoreet mollis ipsum quis elementum. Cras consequat tincidunt feugiat. Praesent ac varius quam. Nulla velit metus, semper quis sagittis id, volutpat ut lacus. Cras elementum ornare accumsan. Vestibulum vitae purus ac elit gravida interdum eget eget metus. </span></p>

It works now. I think it is another duplicate of http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-10421
