tonstwo Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 After some searching I've found out that Arabic text isn't supported. I use both Affinity Photo and Designer, and while I'm willing to wait for that feature to be implemented (please devs soon), I need a way to use Arabic text in my editing. Any input would be welcome.

Staff Dan C Posted January 8, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 8, 2019 Hi tonstwo, Welcome to the forums Unfortunately this is a little tricky, as you have mentioned we don't yet support right to left text. Another user has previously suggested the below site which reverses your text, hopefully this will work as a workaround for you. http://www.arabic-keyboard.org/photoshop-arabic/ Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time. Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!

tonstwo Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 Hi. This is great! I'd hope that this would be implemented in the future, but for now I'll be able to use this for arabic text. This should be in an FAQ don't you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted January 15, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 15, 2019 No problem! I agree, I'll pass your suggestion forward Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Musaed Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Don't hold your breath for true RTL support (text direction, complex script, document direction). It doesn't appear on any of their road maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have some idea how to use RTL in Designer/Publisher/Photo? (my trial for Designer ends soon, i'm very impressed from affinity, but RTL work is on my daily bases... i'm so disappointed, i can't buy the affinity apps (probably all 3) if i can't work with them , i need some workaround. Thanks in advance!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
