It forced me to first remove my more recent non-Middle Eastern version but
I don't mind, it's worth it!

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.
