Arabic characters not connected in a loop about mpdf

[umairali]

To fix this issue with just add 2 new parameters in Arabic fonts array

'useOTL' => 0xFF,
'useKashida' => 75,

 'arabic-font' => [
     'R'  => 'arabic-font.ttf',    // regular font
     'B'  => 'arabic-font.ttf',          // optional: bold font
     'I'  => 'arabic-font-Light.ttf',    // optional: italic font
     'BI' => 'arabic-font.ttf',           // optional: bold-italic font
     'useOTL' => 0xFF,
     'useKashida' => 75,
]

After a few hours of debugging, I believe I may have found what is the cause of this issue.

Basically in the applyOTL function from the otl class, there are a bunch of include_once that load the font data. These should actually be include so that at the next iteration the font data files are actually loaded and the variables otl uses from them are properly defined.

Its not working in magento2.3.0
If I have added this 'useOTL' => 0xFF then its showing error.

@cvaida Thanks for the debugging! I've fixed the issue in 60d6dee for the upcoming 7.0 release, I will probably backport it to 6.1 branch some time later.

@umairali Were you using a custom font? Can this be closed?

Closing this as example files render same result as version 6.x

When i remove 'useOTL' this error fixed but it wrote س ؤال for me!
