You need to study RL a little more.

PDF is sometime written in visual mode. So you just need to reverse it. Not the string - only the hebrew. http://php.net/manual/en/function.hebrevc.php will not help, since it does the opposite.
Word and ODT are saved in logical mode, so no reversal is needed.

Arabic and Hebrew are only displayed in "reverse" but stored in the same order as in english (fist word is first on file).
