Re: Bidirectional problem

I need to see a short example. The order level is defined by java but the
actual flipping is done by iText. I tested it with jdk 1.3 and the examples
in unicode.org; the example arabic_hebrew.java also reverses the text
correctly. Are you sure that the english text or numbers are in the correct
logical order to start with?
If you have in logical order:

String s = "abc 123456";

where abc are arabic characters the result would be in display order:

123456 cba

it works correctly with jdk 1.4.
