How to change the input language of CKEditor with ASP.Net C#

Question

I am using CKEditor in my project and I need to set its input language as Farsi.

I already done this with some textboxes and textareas with a .js file named "FarsiType.js".

FarsiType.js is here : http://www.farsitype.ir/FarsiType.js

When we add an attribute lang="fa" with textbox control its input will be change to Farsi language.

like this :

 <asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="tr" lang="fa" dir="rtl"/>

I need to set Farsi in put for CKEditor too. So how do i set its text input to Farsi language ?

Please help me

Default CKEditor language

Default language is used in case no language is set using config.language option and the editor is not able to use the user language. In order to change default language use the following command:

config.defaultLanguage = 'fa';

The only think you could change to Farsi is the CKEditor's face, buttons title and the text direction. The reason is FarsiType.js is workin on fields and textareas. If you look closely to CKEditor in developer tools, you will see in CKEditor you are typing in the body inside an iFrame and then when you submit the form it will transfer the content to your textarea. Its not possible to apply http://www.farsitype.ir/FarsiType.js to CKEditor unless you access the iframe before load and add the script inside the iframe.
