Question

Adobe reader flips text on print

When you use a right-to-left language like Hebrew, the reader shows it fine.

However, when you try to print the PDF file, even though in preferences you selected "right-to-left", it prints the Hebrew backwards.

In English it would be "hello" -> "olleh", which is insufferable.

- Is there a fix for it?

- Are you aware of this as a bug?

- Is this on your backlog?

- Is this scheduled to be fixed in an upcoming release?

Similar to: Type Hebrew at 'Fill & Sign' at Acrobat Reader DC, letters direction flipped after 'Save' or 'Print'?

Thank you, but choosing:

Step 1: Windows 10

Step 2: no Hebrew option, so my dad that cannot read English can not use it.

Unfortunetly, latest version does not support Hebrew for the interface, and this is my father's computer so I can't use latest English.

Stuck on 10.1.10
