Description: If I try to edit a PDF file whose contents are in Hebrew, words are displayed as LTR (Left To Right) instead of the required RTL (Right To Left). I.e. order of Hebrew letters in words is reversed, and it makes editing the PDF file impossible. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the attached 'table_with_hebrew.pdf' file and see for yourselves. 2. 3. Actual Results: Hebrew words are displayed with letters in reverse order, i.e. Hebrew is displayed as LRT instead of RTL language. Expected Results: Hebrew words should be displayed as RTL, i.e. letters should be displayed from right to left. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Letters in Hebrew words should be displayed RTL.
Created attachment 184336 [details] Screenshot showing the problem Upper part of the screenshot shows how the text should look, i.e. the correct RTL; lower part of the table shows how the text actually looks, i.e. wrong LTR.
Created attachment 184337 [details] PDF file used to demonstrate the bug Lower part of earlier sent'table_with_hebrew.png' file was created using this PDF file.
Created attachment 184338 [details] Source file used to create the two earlier sent attachments Source file used to create earlier sent 'table_with_hebrew.png' and 'table_with_hebrew.pdf' files.
It has to be noted that Scribus ( https://www.scribus.net/ ) and Xournal++ ( https://xournalpp.github.io/ ) deal OK with PDF files having text in Hebrew. Both applications are FOSS, so clues on how to deal with the problem described in this bug report can probably be deduced from Scribus and/or Xournal++. Also, it's reasonable to assume that the problem described in this bug report probably will show itself with other RTL languages.
