Correction: Found the Reader!
You certainly did! I'm glad I asked.
Go to: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
Select: English (Middle Eastern)
Select your platform (It is available for Windows and Mac OS X) and the
rest is as it should be.
It forced me to first remove my more recent non-Middle Eastern version but
I don't mind, it's worth it!
Connie, try it with the PDFs that you have to see which one works.
It works great on this one, for example:
http://persianacademy.ir/books/Dastoor-e%20khatt.pdf
The text can be copied and pasted into Notepad with no directional
problems.
However, it still does not work on many such as:
http://www.farsiweb.info/locale/locale-0.6.pdf
What ends up in Notepad as only garbage.
Obviously, it matters what software was used to create the PDF and I can't
tell from the properties info what the Persian Academy used.
Also
can you come up with a cleaner version of this conversation an put it
on your pages?
OK!
-Connie
