1. Re: InDesign CS2 Middle Eastern Edition files in newer (non-ME) English InDesign
BobLevine Feb 6, 2009 8:46 AM (in response to cgrscott)This shouldn't be a problem in CS4 with the new RTL capabilities buried
in the program.

2. Re: InDesign CS2 Middle Eastern Edition files in newer (non-ME) English InDesign
cgrscott Feb 6, 2009 9:41 AM (in response to cgrscott)That's neat. I have the IDCS4 upgrade but I have not yet made it part of my work-flow.
What does RTL stand for? -

Bob is correct, you should be able to open those files in CS4 without major trouble.

cgrscott Feb 6, 2009 11:10 AM (in response to cgrscott)With right to left capabilities built into InDesign CS4, does this mean there is no need for a Middle Eastern version for IDCS4? -

BobLevine Feb 6, 2009 11:28 AM (in response to cgrscott)Not at all...it means casual needs for RTL can be met, though.

7. Re: InDesign CS2 Middle Eastern Edition files in newer (non-ME) English InDesign
Thomas Phinney Feb 6, 2009 7:40 PM (in response to cgrscott)I wrote a really detailed article and created a bunch of resources for right-to-left and complex script typesetting in InDesign CS4. It's a lot longer than the one on InDesignSecrets, but it also has more depth for folks who need it. Things not found elsewhere:
- list of languages/writing systems newly enabled in InDesign CS4
- InDesign scripts
- templates for InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop
