If the text searched for is all Hebrew, then Okular could reverse the order of the letters when searching.

I don't think the fix is that complicated either. I'm not really familiar with the libraries (and I'm a GNOME user), but a quick search reveals that KDE has reliable BiDi support since 3.0.1. In particular, I found this function: QCString QHebrewCodec::fromUnicode ( const QString & uc, int & lenInOut ) const [virtual] (from http://doc.trolltech.com/3.3/qhebrewcodec.html) which I could guess, that if the search string piped through it before the search takes place, it would fix the problem. (Although there might be a more suitable Qt bidi function which fixes Hebrew, Arabic and all other RTL languages in one go.)

One of these bugs should be duped of the other. I will leave it to the devs to decide which. Thanks.

For Hebrew, it means that the glyphs are stored in visual order. If your PDF viewer accepts user input in logical order (which is the case in Windows and Linux), it should transform search arguments (captured from a user dialog) from logical to visual order before performing the search. For Arabic, there is the additional issue that the glyphs represent letter shapes, and you must perform "shaping", in addition to reordering, on the search arguments to choose the proper glyphs for each Arabic letter.
