RTL text rendering (Arabic Language) issue with PDF Export on Linux Docker Container

Hi,

HTML viewer is showing Arabic words correctly while PDF Export shows splitted characters.

Correct word : فاتورة
Wrong word with splitted characters : ةروتاف

Please find attached screenshots for reference. The issue is appearing only with Linux container.

Telerik support ticket (https://www.telerik.com/account/support-center/view-ticket/1623687) was created and got reply that it is because of libgdiplus library and we were expecting that this issue will be resolved in R2 2023 but it still persists.

Hi,

The new 2024 Q4 release greatly improves the support of RTL languages in the context of Skia/Linux rendering. Affected are both PDF export and Skia engine preview in the Standalone Report Designer for .NET. Please give it a try and share your feedback.

Hello,

Unfortunately, we were unable to release this fix for the 2024 Q2 release.

The solution is still in development and I am afraid that we are unable to give an estimation yet of whether it will be included in the 2024 Q3 release or those following it.

Please stay tuned to the thread as we will update the status as soon as we have more information to share.

Regards,
Dimitar
