Title:
  document viewer search problem in right to left languages

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi
  when I use the search functionality in document viewer, it searches the 
letters as if they are written left to right. That is not a problem in english 
or any left to right language. However, this is a problem in right to left 
languages. I used it particularly with arabic but I guess it is the same for 
any other right to left language.
  In order for the program to detect a right to left word, the word needs to be 
written in reverse in the search box.
  I will give an english example since the words are easier to understand by 
everyone but the problem actually only occurs with right to left languages.
  if I want to search for the word 'hello', I need to type it in reverse as 
'olleh' in the search box.

  I am using ubuntu 12.04.

  Thank you in advance
