Exported PDF shows data in wrong direction for Arabic language

Nanji

Hi,

I have table which has data in Arabic. It shows perfect when it is in table. But when I export PDF, direction of the sentence change and position of the word inverse. For example if there is a sentence of 3 words like "word1 word2 word3", pdf shows "word3 word2 word1"

Please find project sample on this link.

Please suggest solution

@colin

It has different question. My question is about wrong direction of words in PDF. That question is about how to generate PDF with other language.

Please help me.

Ah, I see. It looks like an issue with PDFMake - see this thread here on their support forum.

A workaround would be to use orthogonal data for the export, and reverse the words before sending to PDFmake. This is an example of that here - see myExport.

It's clunky but I can't think of any other way around the issue.

@Beveron Please read Colin's post. He links to the issue in PDFMake. The PDFMake developers will need to fix the PDFMake library. If you want a status for a fix then contact the PDFMake developers. Otherwise you can use the workaround Colin provided.
