Bug ID: 442046 Summary: copy-paste from LTR languages bring reversed text Product: okular Version: 21.08.0 Platform: Manjaro OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: PDF backend Assignee: okular-de...@kde.org Reporter: adam.golan...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Copying arabic and hebrew text strings from Okular to paste it in another program makes them reversed and garbled. Changing LTR settings doesn't help. I've tested this with Foxit PDF Reader and it worked OK. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. select and copy to clipboard arabic or hebrew text in Okular, for example אשר, האיש—אשר לא הלך, בעצת רשעים ال َق ِدي ْ 2. paste it to Libre Office or Google Docs OBSERVED RESULT you're getting something like םיעשר תצעב ,ךלה אל רשא—שיאה ,רשא ر ْ يِ دق َ لا (yeah, in Arabic its really horrible :D) EXPECTED RESULT it should keep correct LTR flow: אשר, האיש—אשר לא הלך, בעצת רשעים ال َق ِدي ْ SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
