InDesign 2014 - handle Arabic text

Hi all

We are desperately trying to get 2014 CC Indesign to work with an Arabic copy, but have cones through some rather fruity questions.

Using the plain text (copied from text edit), insert the Arabic text (arial font) in a document.

As you will see in the screenshot, the editor of world single line is selected.

But as you'll see also the screenshot - the complete point on the Arabic phrase at the wrong end of the line - must be read to the left.

This has happened in several files - but we can't find any solution.

Here's another example... the biggest point is set to no differently, but reads it correctly. The smaller print does not work.

Curiously, the Adobe guide using the Arab copy in CC, demonstrate that we have not (indesign CC 2014) of the menu options

It also seems that any type of return (hard or soft) will affect the orientation of the line - so we took them and presto! the line read correctly.

But the full point and put back them in past the end of the line and make the incorrect sentence.

Can someone explain what is happening?

Thanks in advance

I do not text RTL, set so I can't really tell you, but I think, since you mention the returns is the direction of history, or the paragraph direction (in the style, if there is a sense of the paragraph - I don't know there). You really need to download the correct version of ID to do this.

  • Can I use/font of Arabic text in Illustrator (CC19)

    I have a client who needs an Arabic text, and even if I download a font he recommended and he is Arabic, I can't use them to be ok...

    Y at - it a trick to turn off or something? I found no good sources about it. Even the help of Adobe was quite outdated regarding this... I can't find the menu in their place.

    It would be a great big help to me.

    Thank you.

    Hi Jacob,

    If you install the version of Hebrew or Arabic, number 8-12 are automatically activated.

    I also recommend installing a precious version as CC 2014 as a LTR version if you need only occasionally and your main work in version English.

    This way you can easily switch between languages without having to re-install-of.

    Save as IDML. Which can be opened by the CS4 and Momoli versions later, but there is a loss of content due to features not supported and line ends can change in the text...

    Better would be to simply work in CC 2014 if that's what you need. It is included in your subscription: How to find and install the previous Version of Adobe Apps in CC 2015 | Adobe Customer Care Team

  • Arabic text from right to left - Help!

    How can I make sense of the Arabic text from right to left? After searching the net to find answers, I m just more frustrated.

    Because everyone shows a sullution that doesn´t exists in my indesign... The buttons indicating the direction of paragraph are missing in my indesign CC, and I can't seem to download the version of the Middle East of Indesign.

    Anyone, please help me. Having a deadline tomorrow.

    Kind regards

    To install another version, in your Arabic case, you have to CC app and change the language of the App. Then you need to install them again. Don't uninstall previous language installs. You need to install extra! The necessary plugins are added in the program folder.

  • Data merge encoding error with the Arabic text.

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone has any advice for the use of data with the Arabic text merge.

    I saved the text to Unicode.  It displays corectly in the TXT file.

    But when trying to use datamerge I get an error that says that some of them could not be encoded.  All my Arabic resembles numbers/letters/puctionation.

    (this is with the world ready paragraph composer on).

    In the comments on this page someone sugested using notepad ++ to convert the internal encoding UTF-8 WITHOUT BOM.

    I have not understant what this is, but I don't have the error message after doing this.

    My text is still incomprehensible, but now its symbols like this: o¨o§u «Ù...» UŠoª f rather than nubers/punctuation.

    Nobody knows what's goining on? or how I can fix this?
    Thank you!

    I appreciate it.

    Just in case: windows 8, adobe cs6, excellent 2010

    It seems that ive got I had to combine this solution

    with what I was doing previously.

    Missed me this little milestone:

    Import Options box when you select the CSV file to tell InDesign what encoding it is saved in.

    EDIT: That's what I'm doing, incase anyone else has this problem:

    Save as unicode txt.  Make sure that under options adtional > web options > encoding is set to utf 8

    then, under import box Options when you select the CSV file to tell InDesign what encoding it saved in.

  • Adobe Arabic do not call the final form of the Arabic text?

    Hello

    I'm creating a journal that is mostly in English, but has an article in Arabic. I use InDesign CS5.5ME and uses Adobe Arabic for the Arabic text 2.006.

    I have a situation in which it appears that InDesign reads a diacritical mark in the middle of a Word as an indication that the word has come to an end.

    In the screenshot below, you can see that the heh ending at each of these four words is preceded by a dal with one or two diacritics. It seems that the diacritics speaker causes InDesign to assume the word is finished, and it is affecting the heh using its isolated form. What my editor tells me, it's the heh must be set using its final form.

    Screen Shot 2013-07-08 at 4.42.08 PM.png

    When I change the police for another font with Arabic characters - say X Davat or Times New Roman - the heh correctly takes its final form.

    This leads me to believe that some police - perhaps connected to the diacritic - statement is incorrect. In InDesign settings appear to be correct (otherwise, the problem would appear in other fonts, too). Can anyone else reproduce this problem? Does anyone know if Adobe Arabic 2007 solves this problem (assuming it's a bug)?

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for your help, Miguel.

    For anyone who has followed this thread, Miguel helped me discover that InDesign was load an earlier version of the police. While I thought that I had loaded v2.006, I actually had not, so InDesign 'found' a version and that in its place. I'm still trying to understand loading where the old version, but now, when I'm sure I have loaded version 2.006, InDesign built correctly the words using the correct characters.

    To find out which version of the police has been actually used in my paper, I opened the find font dialog box and clicked on the button more than information - a feature that I had forgotten in the past, but will rely on a lot from that time.

  • How to merge data to work with Arabic text

    I need to make use of the data merge tool for a project I'm working on, but it involves the creation of documents in English and Arabic. I created a CSV (with Excel and OpenOffice) with English and Arabic text in there, but when I use it as a Data Source, the English is fine, but comes from Arabic in lines, points mark or arbitrary characters. I have UK InDesign CS6 and also a test of InDesign ME CS6, but doesn't seem to work. Any help would be massively appreciated.

    I have never tried to work with Arabic text, but my suspicion is that the problem lies in the data file, not necessarily in InDesign.  I don't know how your data file has been created, but my instinct would be to record from Excel as Unicode text, if that's an option avaialable you. This should give you a tabs-delimited text file that keeps the characters in extensive ranges required for Arabic, I think.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB 9000 "BOLD" how to display Arabic text SMS

    I'm new to these forums so sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place... Please redirect me if so.

    Recently bought BB bold 9000 Vodafone Aust. Need to know how to display messages or emails received in the ARABIC text... any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Download the operating system for the carrier and use the Application Loader within the Desktop Manager software (that came with the box) and select Arabic with the language options (if it is an option).

    Alternatively you could install the operating system of an Arab company (is to delete the vendor.xml file), but this is not recommended.

    This is my website (the short version) instructions:

    Get an operating system from here:http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    ----------------------------------

    The operating system of software downloaded from the Blackberry site contains all of the files required to recharge the o/s.
    The Desktop Manager software is NOT necessary!

    Once downloaded and installed, follow these instructions:

    • Download the file from the OS from the website of your carrier to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.
    • Go to c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    • Plug in BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

    The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour depending on the amount of data you need to back up and restore during the process. Once he did load the new OS, it will reboot (it may do it twice during the entire process.) You will see a white screen with a hourglass up to 20 minutes at a time while the DM says "waiting for initialization." If, for any reason, you end up with a white screen with small icons and the number 507, simply reconnect to the PC and run Loader.exe again and it should load the operating system on the device.

  • Display Arabic text

    I recently upgraded to windows 7 ultimate x 64. I'm trying to run a program that display Arabic text, but it shows the instead of unreadable characters. I downloaded and installed the Arabic language pack, but it does not work?

    Hello

    Is what program this?

    Do you know if it supports the English operating system?

    You should contact your supplier or the manufacturer of the program and check if this software supports and runs on an operating system with an English Interface. Unicode (Unreadable character) indicates that the software does not support your language.

    See you soon.

  • How to prevent the reversal after the Arabic text PDF?

    I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. I used the "fill" option to fill the shape with the Arabic text. However, after that record, when I open the text file is switched from left to right (like a mirror), and each letter is indicated separately.

    What can I do to prevent this?

    Hi Sab Lulua,

    Let us know if this problem occurs with a PDF in particular. Try to reproduce the problem with other documents.

    Also sharing the operating system installed on your system.

    Please try changing the option provided under "Text Editing in the languages of the Middle East".

    For which go to the Edit menu > Preferences > language. Check if that helps.

    Kind regards
