In both these, there are different approaches. We sometimes go from start
to end, sometimes from end to start. Sometimes even we write them in mixed
order (about both short vowels and dots).
I should tell something about short vowels. These days (I am talking about
the last decade) there is a short vowel that some writers never omit. If
the final sound of a Persian word is a "Kasrah", some Persian writers
including myself never omit it. It's a new tradition!!!
