Sorry, additional procedure.
Please restart Redmine.

Persian is a locale in RTL.
But, you seem to be using a locale in LTR.

#10 Updated by m mahdi over 7 years ago

Thanks for your reply.
After restart Redmine, PDF export was correct.
But, task history is incorrect yet.

Also the "DejaVuSans" font is not appropriate for Persian and Arabic language. Please change font to Arial, Tahoma or "times new roman"

#11 Updated by Jun NAITOH over 7 years ago

DejaVuSans Arabic and Persian language weren't supported by Italic font.

Please use pdf_Arabic_Persian.patch. (for Remine 2.6 and trunk)

No, the exported PDF is not correct yet despite the improvement. The problem is all characters are joined to their previous characters, even when they must not be joined.

Yes, The font is not correct. The font not suitable for Persian and Arabic text.

#14 Updated by Ebrahim Mohammadi over 7 years ago

I'm not sure font is the problem. DejaVu fonts work well with Persian. I think something else is wrong.
