Urdu/Arabic Writing in Affinity Designer


Recommended Posts

Hello, I couldn’t find the settings for writing Urdu/Arabic as we write from right to left. But when I try to write Urdu, it is writing like this (attached screenshot).

I found only 1 way to do this by copying whole sentence from other software like Adobe and paste here in Affinity Designer, in this way it is working fine.

In Adobe we can set this by going to paragraph panel, clicking on the 3 lines and selecting " Middle Eastern & South Asian Composer"

There are no settings for that, as right-to-left languages are not supported in the Affinity applications.
