            Bug ID: 113802
           Summary: Punctuation in Text Box Fillable PDF for Hebrew in
                    LibreOffice types to right
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3.6.1 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: cphill53 at gmail.com

I am using LibreOffice to create a Fillable PDF document where the fill-ins
will be in Hebrew.  Everything works when the fill-ins are in English.  The
Hebrew types in right-to-left when I tell LibreOffice to set up the fill-in box
to do that.  The problem is when I am going along and have finished a sentence
and try to type in the period, the period types out on the right of the block,
same line just not at the end of the Hebrew text.  It’s the same thing with an
exclamation mark.  I am running Complex Text Layout.  I tell LibreOffice to
type out right-to-left when creating the block and the text works, just not the
punctuation. It's also a challenge to get the punctuation marks and numbers to
stay in their proper locations in the sentence. Also, as before, little boxes
with x's in them start showing up once I've typed something; these boxes cover
up the typed words, though they can be temporarily removed simply by clicking
on them.
