--- Comment #6 from Eido A. <eido.askayo at gmail.com> ---
Confirming this issue persists on modern systems.

The scope is wider than just annotations and critically breaks interactive PDF
form filling. This appears to be the correct master bug to track this, as it
has the MR linked.

I found several duplicates pointing to the same core RTL rendering problem,
some going back over a decade:

*   #469359 (Arabic text)
*   #454552 (Typewriter tool)
*   #184399 (Copy/paste)
*   #156380 (Text selection)

As a fellow dev, happy to help test any patches or provide more specific
diagnostics.

**Repro Environment:**
- Okular: 25.04.1
- OS: Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS / GNOME 46.0
