            Bug ID: 221833
           Summary: <img> isn't able to render RTL text correctly
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 14
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Open

data:text/html;charset=utf-8,The following two lines should have exact same text,<br>یاexampleیا<br><img alt="یاexampleیا" src="about:blank" width=200 height=200>

Compare the two lines with other browser.

Actual:
RTL text is rendered incorrectly thus the two lines differs

Expected:
They should be same, just like the other browsers.

Actually I've filed this in 2013 in Chromium https://crbug.com/326921 and now am seeing it again in Safari. That file contains three patches and it turned out the fix for this is just to use drawBidiText instead drawText which I submit a patch with it also.
