Hi; I am generating Arabic using ColumnText.setSimpleColumn(...). It is working fine about 99% of the time. But as shown in the attached, it is not seperating 2 glyphs on one word. The text for that line is passed in as a single chunk and the phrase passed in is just that single text chunk. setArabicOptions(0), setRunDirection(PdfWriter.RUN_DIRECTION_RTL).
The "correct" render is as shown on the right and is how that text is displayed in Word and in IntelliJ. What's also weird is copy/paste between Word and Acrobat gets the text really screwed up. Any idea why it might not be displaying this wrong? Do I need to add somethign to Acrobat to properly handle Arabic? thanks - dave
