Last Letter Disappears in PDF Export for Hebrew Text in InDesign 2025

[Boroda5CC6]

The problem is not solved from 2022/3-2025

A problem that the last letter disappears after exporting the file to pdf format-on Hebre

The problem is that there are text cubes (Hebrew) that are closed precisely on the text/font

This happens inside a text cube in block alignment mode.

It mostly happens that there is a "period" at the end of a sentence.
I also tried Latin letters, numbers and other punctuation marks at the end of the sentence.
There was no bug.

I exported the file to print in pdf format
The result was a "disaster" the dots disappeared at the end of a sentence.
If you don't pay attention... it can mean financial damage to the office and the client, from printing expenses.

It is important that you address this issue urgently.
The users of the software in Hebrew/Arabic languages ​​cannot advance to the 2025 software and remain to work in lower versions.

Test on

mac studio m1 max (and olders)

Mac Os Monterey V12.7+ventura 13.6

InDesign 2025 26.00

Adobe Indesign (19.0 : 20.0) 2024-2025 / Mac os Sequoia 15.0.1
When using a Text Variable (Running Header ‹Paragraph Style›) and applying it to fully diacritized Arabic text, the first letter of the heading does not appear in the result. This issue arises when exporting to PDF.

The text is expected to display correctly without errors; however, contrary to this, the first letter of the fully diacritized text does not appear. This issue arises when exporting to PDF.

The test files and illustrative screenshots of the issue are attached.

I wonder if this bug is at all related to another bug where RTL glyphs drop a character upon export to PDF. If so, there have been quite a few threads here that may also be about this same bug. There are also some other Uservoice posts that might be relevant. I include those links to see if any of the workarounds in those threads are helpful for you. Please do add your votes to the Uservoice posts; upvoting those posts increases the likelihood that this bug will get attention from developers. 

However, please do check if you're really using version 19.0. Apparently, numerous bugfixes went out with 19.2, and if you're genuinely using 19.0 (check in Help -> About InDesign). Furthermore, the employee reccomendation that went out on this community was to roll back to 18.5; if you don't still have that version installed, you might be able to get Adobe Customer Care to get you a download link.
