Arabic text transformation
Apr 26, 2012 3:44 AM
Hello, i ve got a problem with the way Illustrator shows arabic text, can someone please help?.
I'm using Arabic keyboard (http://www.arabe-clavier.com/arabic-keyboard/) online app to write arabic text, since we don`t use arabic keyboards in the company its the only way we have to create a text. Arab writting changes the pictograms depending the next caracter, as you can see in the app if you want to try it.
When I copy / paste the text to Ai using a box suited to Arial, font which have the Arab pictograms, I got the characters changed to single and individual characters. As you can see inthe example I attach.
BTW, It works perfect in Corel Draw, so I guess could be some kind of paste preference or text preference that makes Ai dont to do the task properly.
Tanks a lot.
