RE: Word reversal from Abobe to Word

Albrecht notes that

The complete RTF clipboard content is this, created by "Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, Version 9.5.1":

0000: 7B 5C 72 74 66 31 5C 61 6E 73 69 5C 61 6E 73 69 {\rtf1\ansi\ansi

0090: 75 31 35 30 32 20 5C 27 45 45 7D 7D 00 00 u1502 \'EE}}

Collecting the RTF, we have

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\uc1 {\fonttbl\f0\fnil\fcharset177 \'41\'72\'69\'61\'6C;}
\pard\plain\ql\f0\fs20 {\fs56 \u1511 \'F7\u1493\'E5\u1491 \'E3\u1502 \'EE}}

This displays correctly (קודמ) in Word 2013 anyhow. \fcharset177 is correct for Hebrew.

In contrast to what I said below, it also works for \fcharset0, which is ANSI_CHARSET and LTR. So I can't get it to display incorrectly. Word treats paste a little differently from opening a file, so conceivably there's a problem there. Can you save the RTF above as a file and open the file in your Word to see how it displays?
