Questions
Why is Arabic reversed when I copy it from a PDF?
Some apps store Arabic in a PDF in drawing order (left to right) and as joined letter shapes, not in writing order. Copying gives you reversed or loose letters. The tool turns the shapes back into letters and restores the order.
Why does Photoshop show Arabic as separate letters?
Older versions and some settings don't join letters or write right to left. In current Photoshop, the Middle Eastern text engine fixes it. Otherwise paste here, choose “Prepare text”, and copy the result.
What about diacritics, digits and English in the text?
English and digits keep their order. Diacritics are dropped in “Prepare text” mode, because apps without Arabic support can't place them over the letter.
