When I use your "PPTX with RTL text in aligh-left text box" file. And when I put my cursor in the box, I observe a strange behavior. With the arrows on my keyboard, when I would like to go 1 space on the left, the cursor goes one space on the right, and the reverse also! It doesn't respond to the bug but it's an additional observation. And the box hasn't been rotated. I checked it.
