Description Nima Dolatabadi 2017-11-02 17:13:18 UTC

Okular PDF does not understand right to left languages like Persian etc. for example for a word like "همدان" if I want to search it, I must type "نادمه" then it will find the "همدان" word.
this problem also exist in copy and paste text. for example I have a PDF file which says "راهنمای نگارش یک گزارش علمی", I just wrote this text on my own. now I'm going to copy this text and paste it here, it goes like this: "يملع شرازگ كي شراگن يامنهار". this is how it goes. all going wrong way.
please fix this problem ASAP.
regards
