Response to Comment # 10 Bug 113802

Version 5.4.7.2 was successfully installed.

I experimented with the fix after installation.  Everything seems OK, but for
one thing, the cursor.

Using Forms Control with Wizard On, I created a “Text Box.”  I then went to
“Control” and brought up “Properties: Text Box” and then under the “General”
tab, changed the “Text Direction” to “Right-to Left.”  I also changed the
horizontal and vertical “Alignment” so the cursor would begin at the upper
right.  After turning Wizard Off, I went to File and “Exported to PDF” using
the default settings.

As I said, the cursor and its position while typing is the problem.  When I
type in Hebrew and than hit the space bar, the cursor moves all the way back to
the right of the text box on the same line.  I then type a letter and it moves
back to where it should type that letter.  When I want to end the sentence with
a period, the period moves back to the beginning of the same line in the test
box.  I type the first letter of the new sentence and the period is at the end
of the last sentence.  Except for what the cursor is doing, everything else
seems OK.

I did not make any other setting changes (e.g. in Events in Properties: Text
Box) because I did not think they would be relevant.  However, there is the
possibility I do not understand something about the program and should have
made other setting changes.
