When scanning a PDF then converting it into DOCX, Hebrew text turns reversed

I've had this issue- Whenever I try converting a Hebrew PDF into DOCX using Acrobat, all the text turns completely reversed (letters change order of appearance) but remembers the formatting & spaces I've used.

 

For example; "ספינה" turns into "הניפס". I don't know why this is happening, if anyone has a solution thank you so much!

Hi there!
Thanks for reporting this issue.

Can you help us with below info to identify the issue?
1. Export to DOCX functionality allows selection of Document language, are you selecting your language before converting?

2. If you could share any test file with us with which issue is reproducible that will be great.

How are you converting the file, exactly? What command are you using?

Also, what's your OS version, Acrobat version, and Office version?
