Arabic text with accents shown broken

Hello,
In FireFox 4, Arabic text with accents (ًٌٍَُِّْ) is shown broken. It was displayed correctly in previous versions and also in IE.
Consider please the following examples, and compare between the words with and without accents. You can see the gaps between the letters:
دعم فَيَرفُكس
مُتَصَفِّحُ فَيَرفُكس هُو مُتَصفح الانترنت الأفضل فى العالم
The problem is not site specific. It is common to all sites with Arabic texts. I'll just provide an example URL. Compare the display of FF4 with previous versions or with IE.
Thank you.. You are the best !! :)

BTW, disabling/enabling the option "allow web pages to use their own fonts" had no effect. The broken text problem is the same in either case.

  • Problem with Arabic text with flash player 10 32bit under linux platforms

    Arabic encoding characters do not show correct in the right form at all linux distributions .
    note: with windows platforms, it shows arabic characters correctly.
    this video contains captions and subtitles, in the attachement two snapshots,
    First, show the arabic sentences in the right form with "swfdec mozilla" plugins.
    The other, show the arabic words with "adobe flash player 32bit" plugins,
    for example: Arabic font enconding cp-1256
    the character ب
      in the beginning of the word " بـ ".
    in the middle " ـبـ "
    at the end "ـب"
    isolated character "not in word "ب"
    the word
      كتب in the right form
    begin from right with " كـ "
    with adobe flash player
    ب ت ك
    it shows from left to right and use only isolated characters.
    I report to adobe and they response
    Hi Ghost,
    Since you do not have a 64 bit machine please proceed to reinstall the
    32 bit edition.
    For the current release version of Flash player 10, it does support
    Right to left, But you can’t use a text field on stage and have it
    work. When authoring the content in Flash cs4, you would have to use
    the Flash text engine. more information on that can be found here:

    I too am having this problem. On all of my linux distributions, including Ubuntu 8.04, 8.10, knoppix 5,1, fedora 8,9,10 flashplayer 10 is broken in the same way.  It reports that it cannot find webcam, and the settings dialog refuses to recognize mouse clicks.  I've poked around the web quite a bit and have not yet found a solution.  I saw the problem mentioned on an adobe bug reporting site and their response was to close the issue saying it wasn't repeatable on their system.  I tried to re-open it and my post was deleted without comment (I may have posted incorrectly or something)
    Looking here  and elsewhere I see that the problem is very common and I don't see any posted bug-fixes, or even acknowledgement that a bug exists.  Has adobe lost interest in being cross-platform compatible?

  • Arabic Text Wrapping

    Hello,
    We are facing problems in our website with the new text layout framework. Text wrapping is not functioning. Arabic text is being shown right to left and everything is fine except when we have an arabic article which includes long sentences that need to be wrapped. The framework takes out sometimes one letter of the word and put it by itself on one line. Is Text Wrapping supported in the new framework?
    Thanks and appreciate your help

    Please clarify what you mean by "text wrapping".  TLF supports breaking lines in one or more linked rectangular containers.  No support for wrapping around floating images.
    There are a couple of ways you may end up with short lines as described.  A tab character and no tabstops results in a line break.  A newline will also cause a line break.  If its not one of those problems an ActionScript example would be highly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Richard

  • Problem displaying arabic text in xml document

    Hi ..
    I have an xml type coloum where i store an xml document that contains some arabic texts with UTF-8 encoding, m using an xsl file to transform the xml and display it in an html page.
    At the database level when i select the xml col to dispaly the document, arabic texts are displayed correctly (DB is set to 1256), however when trying to display the text on html it gives me junk values. XSL sheet's encoding is set to windows-1256. M using Jdeveloper 1012 and BC4J frame work in my application.
    How do i solve this problem.?
    P.S.it wud b great if u support ur answer with examples .
    Regards

    You have to do it yourself -  I don't have a ready solution. Just look into documentation how StyleSheets are used and see what properties work best for you:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextField.html
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/StyleSheet.html
    Also, with embedded fonts you need to play with TextFormat settings and AntiAliasType
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/AntiAliasType.html
    In addition, on my machine even if I don't emebed fonts - Arabic works in Arial, TImes and others.

  • Arabic text appearing incorrectly in Photoshop CC when working with PSD created in previous version

    Hi. I'm working with PSD files that were originally created in Photoshop CS5 and they contain English text. Now I want to open them with Photoshop CC ME and add Arabic text.
    So I've gone to Preferences > Type > clicked the "Middle Eastern and South Asian" radio button
    Then from the main menu I selected Type  > Language Options > checked "Middle Eastern Features".
    I see the Middle Eastern features in the Paragraph and Character panels. However, if I create a text box and paste in Arabic text - the text is corrupt. The characters are not connected and their appearence is incorrect.
    I've double checked that I have right-to-left selected in the Paragraph panel and in the Character panel I have both "Standard Ligatures" and "Contextual Alternates" selected.
    When I open a new file in Photoshop CC and paste the same text into a newly created text box - it works fine. The Arabic appears perfect. The issue is only when working in a file that was previously created in an earlier version of Photoshop.
    If I move a text box from the new PSD created in CC to the other PSD created in CS5 - all is good. However this work-around is far from Ideal, since I need to work in the existing text boxes.
    Does anyone have an idea how to enable proper appearance of Arabic text in Photoshop CC in a file that was created in a previous version?
    Thanks!

  • Trouble exporting pdf with Arabic text to .doc file

    I am having an issue exporting a pdf from the trial of Acrobat Pro XI on a Windows 7 computer.
    The pdf has a table with English fields in the left column and Arabic equivalents in the right column.
    It appears to display fine within Acrobat, so I assume it has fonts embedded and that Acrobat is somehow handling the display of the Arabic font correctly.
    I need to export this to .doc or .docx so that I can enter additional data.
    When I convert to .doc, the English column and fields convert pretty good, but the Arabic fields do not display well at all. I am not sure if this is some sort of trouble with Word (or the Windows OS) requiring an Arabic font or Arabic text support to be installed on the system or if there is some other issue (such as Acrobat not handling the conversion well)??.
    I did note that there is an Arabic Font add on to Acrobat that can be downloaded from Here:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4885&fileID=4558
    However, since Acrobat is seeming to properly display the Arabic text, I don't know that this is required...additionally when I tried to install the Arabic font support from that URL, it told me that Acrobat X was require, I am using Acrobat XI reader (installed with the trial version of Acrobat pro that I wish to purchase if I can get this working properly).
    Thanks in advance for any assistance or advice offered on this subject.

    Unfortunately our conversion engine cannot convert text, such as Arabic, which reads from right to left.  It maybe something that we add in the future however it is not available at this time.

  • Problems with displaying dynamic Arabic text

    We have a problem with a navigation system we are building
    which has to be able to display dynamic Arabic text. We are pulling
    in the Arabic text using XML. The problem we are having is that the
    character are not displaying joined up where they should be (for
    instance in the middle of words). Arabic characters have different
    shaping according to the position they take up within a word. What
    we are producing is apparently unreadable. Has anyone come accross
    this problem before? Is it solveable?

    Hi:
    Is there any possible chance that Adobe would do something to asist us Fl8 users with international character support.
    Everyone has some work-around, except Abode, and they are all usually related to XML.
    My setup is PHP (CMS supporting many languages) -> MySQL -> PHP -> Flash8 (Dynamic Text Fields) and the olpart that does not work is when I inject an extended character into the string - Flash stops displaying anything from that character on.
    If Adobe has or did have some component / solution or anything other than the usual System.useCodePage = true (which never seems to actually work), please let me know.
    Best Regards,

  • I have a problem with arabic text in facbook im using firfox v5

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [[/questions/856583]]</blockquote>
    I'm using Firefox web browser v5 and i can wright and reed Arabic text at all web sights. but when I'm trying to read or right Arabic text in Facebook i have a probable that every letter is separated and when i open Facebook with other browsers like chrome using same desktop the Arabic text appear without any problems.

    I am doing a newsletter which I have an arabic translation of in a word document. When I copy and paste into Illustrator it changes the font (it says times new roman in the word doc, but the illustrator version comes out times new roman but looks completely different ) and the right to left orientation to left to right. How do I fix this?
    Make sure your document language is properly set to Arabic in Word. Just typing Arabic and the document actuall being Arabic are two different things. Mismatches affect Unicode ranges, resulting in the wrong characters being copied to the clipboard. In AI, check the substitution options on the text palette and glyph palette as well as your global glyph protection pref.

  • When Using [OLE DB] driver some arabic text appear with cutting last character

    hi
    i have a problem in crystal report when bilding report using using [OLE DB] driver some arabic text appear with cutting the last one or tow characters
    note: i'm using VBasic 6.0 , RDC and crystal report viewer

    I thought I'd post an update to this since I've narrowed down the problem.
    It turns out this is NOT a bug in Apple's Java implementation, but in the AAT rendering engine. In any application, if a user changes the style of part of an Arabic string, it breaks the font connection. I have been informed though that this has already been fixed, and should be functional when Leopard is released. ALL applications that use AAT suffer from this problem, not just Java.

  • Problems with pasting arabic text into indesign

    HI,
    I am trying to cut and paste arabic text from Word 2007 to indesign ( ENGLISH) CS4
    this is the text from word
    This is the text when i paste it into indesign
    They look completely different!
    No clue why
    I have installed the arabic keyboard onto the computer
    I have installed the arabic font from adobe
    I have installed the script to switch text from left to right --right to left (I found that script here
    http://indesignsecrets.com/free-script-for-hebrew-or-arabic-text-in-regular-version-of-ind esign.php)
    but I am getting the same problem
    any suggestions!!
    thanks

    Pre-CS4 I would either change the glyph order and the individual glyphs by hand -- for *extremely* short string only --, or simply print the original file (which is usually Word) to a PDF and place that as an image.
    Jongware's method is the best easy way to achieve this (placing the PDF file, I mean - manually hunting for medial glyphs is something I'd only suggest for those who have some demonstrated familiarity with the script in question). If your client insists that you not use a placed PDF for complex-script languages ("The Arabic is a picture, and I can't change the color of the text! Please send me something editable.") and you have no ME tools, you can open up that PDF, save out an EPS file, and in the "Settings" button in Acrobat you can find the "convert all fonts to outlines," save, open up the EPS in AI, copy the handily outlined AR text, and paste that into InDesign. It doesn't work perfectly, but it will do in a pinch.

  • Problem with Creative Cloud and Arabic Text

    We are currently testing illustrator CC and would be moving from CS5 Middle Eastern Version
    We have installed CC using the lanuage setting English Arabic
    And we can add text to files in arabic so all good
    However if we open a file created in CS5 ME the arabic text displays as blocks. The font used is myriad pro
    Is there a way to correct this ?

    The best bet is to keep both and open the file in the appropriate version. With the changes in the text engine it will always be a problem.

  • How to print Arabic text along with the English in smartform ( ECC6 version

    Hi All,
    our is ECC6 version, Non unicode, ABAP stack ( not dual stack )
    is it possible to print in Arabic language in the above version ?
    if yes, then please let me know how to print Arabic text and English text in the same smartfrom.
    i tried in the following procedures :
    1) i created standard text (SO10) in arabic language.
    i called in the smartform ( include text - i )
    langage AR
    but system throws error message saying, required language is not installed.
    2) if i use READ_TEXT function module.
    text getting printed in diff format but not in arabic.
    waiting for your replies..

    ECC6 and Non-Unicode? I think you'll need multiple code pages, I doubt there's a mixed Arabic/Latin1 available. And I don't think SAP supports new MDMP systems any more. If you need to support multiple languages you really need to go Unicode. It's probably easier to do the Unicode conversion than to try to support multiple code pages and you have to make the switch eventually.
