Hebrew search in PDFs is backwards?

[Gadi Cohen]

Hi

I've exported a PDF from OpenOffice 3.1 (with tags).
I can search for Hebrew text in Evince or Okular, but it searches backwards.
E.g.  If I have the words SHIR and RISHON, if I start typing "RI" it
will match the end of SHIR.

I have no idea if this is a problem with OpenOffice, Evince/Okular or
just the PDF standard.
Any pointers?

Thanks
Gadi

P.S.  Maybe someone can save me some more headache.
I see that (finally!) a PDF export won't randomly insert Hindi
characters in ooMath objects.
This was committed to CWS ooo32gsl09 and is targetted for 3.2.

I also see that 3.2rc2 is based on "OOO320_m9".

Can I hope that since they both start with "ooo32" and end with "9" it
will have the fix? :)

I find the versioning scheme quite complicated.
