Printing Bidi text from explicit RTL JtextArea, left is broken. The printed
JTeaxtArea does not show bidi Text.

To reproduce bug:
1- Compile and run the following code
2- Press the "Print entire Frame" button
3- Compare the printed JTextArea with displayed frame
4- Note that the printed JTextArea does not show bidi text as the displayed
JTextArea.
