Numbers get reversed sometimes during conversion
Hi,
I have come across an issue wherein while trying to covert PDFs (mainly of
RTL languages) into TXT, the numbers get reversed.
Please check the attached file, '2005' in heading has become '5002'.
It happens with the latest version too. Is this a bug ?
This is a PDF/A format by the way. Hope it is fully supported.
Thanks in advance.

The file didn't make it due to some restrictions.

Do you use the sorting option?

First thing to be done in such cases is to do the "Adobe Reader test". It fails,
the text can't be extracted using Acrobat Reader, so we are better ;-) Anyway,
mixed LTR/RTL text is always tricky to handle, see PDFBOX-2252
No solution so far, if there is any at all.

Hi Andreas,
I have just uploaded the files at below location -
https://ftp.emc.com/action/login?domain=ftp.emc.com&username=7rdPxvIJU&password=mKymXA2KyB
I tried both, but whether I sort or not doesn't make any difference in the
output.
Thanks,
Shyam
