What OS are you using? Both Windows and Apple include Arabic fonts in the standard OS font list.

Adobe has created a .psd file that supports correct RTL Arabic. You can open this in Illustrator or Photoshop and you're ready to go. Works quick and easy and saves you shovling out loads of money on ME version.

I can teach you a small trick that I discovered myself;
Uing Microsoft word and adobe acrobat pro, you can type the text you want in arabic using the Arial font, then export the document to PDF format.
Now go to illustrator and open the file.
At first it will tell you that a font substitution will occur, then it will display your text in rectangles.
Just double click your text and select Arial font again and voila.......
just copy your text to your file and outline it.
Cheers

Hey guys, I recently encountered this problem with a designer friend.
We had a couple of projects that required the use of Arabic texts. So I had created a small app for her.
Very simple to use. You paste the required Arabic text into the field provided, and with a press of a button, the app will throw out a fixed Arabic text ready to use in your clipboard...

Hope this helps you guys!

I have been trying to get an .odt text (correctly set and provided by client) into Illustrator in order to design a business card.
At first I used cut (from original .odt file) and paste into Illustrator, but the text kept displaying the characters in reverse order.
I also tried Photoshop and got the same result.
I tried the same thing MS Word, but that crashed.
I finally got it to work by doing this:
open Illustrator CC 2015 / Preferences / Type / put a check mark in the box “show indic options" / selected an Arabic typeface / pasted correct ODT text / it displayed correctly
These are the only steps I needed to take.
I opened a new document to test and learned that the setting in Preferences needs to be selected BEFORE you paste the text. If you have already pasted the text and then change the preference the characters will be in the wrong order.
Hope this helps. The other suggestions in the previous post seem much more complicated than this easy fix. Good luck!
