Change Writing Direction option does not show up on some text

Hello everyone 

I created a pdf file by converting an image to pdf and run OCR with searchable and editable text. Now when I want to edit the text, mostly translate the file from english to german I get writing direction problems. 

Now I know there is an option to add the Change Writing Direction but the problem is that it disappears on some text regardless of the language either english or german. I choose the direction by right click on the text and choose from the drop down menu. I don't know if there is another way to change the direction. 

 

Some notes that might clarify my problem: 

Writing Graduated (2021) gets wrongly written as      )Graduated (2021  and trying to write the closed brackets at the end will just add another closed brackets before the letter G. In MS Office Word changing the text direction to Left-to-Right will solve this problem. 

 

I am using Windows 10 (64bit)

Region Language is set to English (USA)

Enabled Language for Non-Unicode programs and choose Arabic 

Adobe Version: Adobe Acrobat Pro DC (32bit)  version 2021.001.20150 

 

The settings are:
