Flash CS 4 - Arial Unicode Arabic text

Hi,
I am facing a strange issue. I have a flash file where Arabic text is written using Arial Unicode MS and is displayed properly, but when i try to update the text field with new arabic content, the words split up into characters.
The image below shows the issue: Both original as well new content is in the same text field but they are displayed differently.
Please suggest as to what should be the possible solution for this. P.S. I cannot change the font family, it has to be Arial unicode MS.
Thanks,
Ayush

Sorry Fahran - not sure I understand. Are you saying that all connections cause the same issue in CR 2011 with SP 9?
SP 9 can be downloaded here:

As far as I know the TLFTextField is the only class currently provided for native support of right to left text. It is only supported by players that were developed concurrent with its arrival, which might account for some not seeing what they expect. From what I have heard there are discrepancies with its performance as well, wherein if you do not need to use it, stick with the classic TextField.

Arabic texts display on Flash CS3

I've read through the forum on Adobe and other sites about
solution of Arabic texts on Flash. No doubt the Arabic texts can be
displayed perfectly in Dynamic text boxes(without embedding font),
but the problem is the policy of Dynamic text is whenever you
specify certain texts to have bold, italic or different color, but
all texts under same text box will be changed as well. It's not
freely as Static text, somemore you can't make animation like
masking, tweening using Dynamic text.
Now I am in the middle of searching high and low for solution
or extension to use Arabic texts freely on Static text without
compromising the limitation of animation.

Anyone has idea on how to overcome this problem, please
generously help me by sending your solution to my email.
[email protected] Thanks
in advance!

Problem in displaying Arabic text in flash cs3/cs4

Hi All, I'm creating one website. I have to display dynamic xmlize arabic text in flash. I have done it using flash cs3/AS3. But problem is that when text displays in flash it is not rendering as expected. Some gaps comes in the characters. But when I open my xml in browser, arabic text displays correct.
Is there any way to do it in flash cs3 or Flash cs4 using player 9? It would be really great if anyone can give me solution on this. Thanks

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

In addition, on my machine even if I don't emebed fonts - Arabic works in Arial, TImes and others.

Catching arabic text + unicode in the servlet

Hi,
I am doing web project for the saudia arabia where user enters their information in the arabic text. So how do i get this information in unicode in the action class. I am using struts framework for the web application. Please suggest me some steps.
From,
N.D.Pradhan

Hello,
If "Arabic Transparent" is a valid font-family value, it should be quoted, as it contains white-space .
Single quotes must be used when using the "style" attribute in HTML (like style="font-family: arial, 'lucida console', sans-serif").
Hope it helps,
Arie.

Can I embed Arabic text in flash?

1. If so, how can I do this? When I cut and paste an arabic
text from a notepad or photoshop, all the characters comes out
wrong.
2. I believe I can use an external txt or xml file instead.
But if I do this, would the user be able to get the right
characters / fonts if they don't have the arabic fonts on their
machines?
thanks in advance.

About embedding font outlines:
Let's say I want to use a decorative font - call it
"Lithograph" (one I commonly use) - to type the word "HELLO" in my
Flash movie. Flash will embed the outlines of the actual shapes of
the Lithograph characters H E L and O into the SWF. It treats them
as actual outlines, not as fonts. That way, even if you don't have
Lithograph on your system, you will still see "HELLO" in my SWF,
formatted as Lithograph font. This applies to Static Text only. It
is done automatically. You do not need to physically embed the font
yourself. You do not need to convert the letters to shapes.
Therefore I am GUESSING that the same thing happens when you
use Arabic: Flash will embed the shapes of those Arabic letters. So
the end user does not need to have Arabic on their system. Again,
this applies only to Static Text, not Dynamic or Input text.
To see whether this is happening, generate a Size Report (in
the Publish settings), open the Size Report text file, and scroll
down close to the bottom: it will tell you exactly which letters
are embedded in the file.

Arabic Text in TextInput in Flash Builder 4.5.1

Hello,
I am currently developing a mobile application that is supposed to work on both Android and iOS devices. I am supposed to display arabic text and also to take arabic text input from the user. While I was trying to display simple output and input components I faced a problem with the TextInput. Please note the following:
-The TextInput component displays the arabic text in reversed order and the characters are disjoint.
-The label component does not have this problem and it accepts and displays the arabic text correctly.
-An embedded font was added
-The problem exists on both IPad and Galaxy Tab however the IPad displays the text correctly while typing (before loosing the focus on the TextInput). On the other hand, the Galaxy Tab displays the text in a wrong way both while typing and on focus out. However, the suggested words (above the keyboard in the Galaxy tab) are shown correctly.
Please check the snapshots below.
From Ipad:
Thank you.

Here's the solution:
The problem did not exist on an installation of Flash Builder on a spare MacBookPro.
On my main computer (the one with the Flash Builder issue) I uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Builder 4.5 (then updated to 4.5.1). Creating an iOS Mobile Application now creates the correct code.
I have no idea why it was creating dodgy code.
The only difference with the new Flash Builder install is that SourceMate 3.0 is not installed yet. Perhaps something had gone wrong in the Adobe Updater when going from 4.5 to 4.5.1, who know...all speculation...anyhow it works now!

Arial Unicode text overlapping after updgrading from ssrs 2008 to ssrs 2008 R2.

Hi,
we recently upgraded our dev environment to SSRS 2008 R2 SP2. We are seeing issues with Arial Unicode font when exported to PDF. Text is overlapping and hard to read. Below is the example especially with special characters.
Please advice
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Hi Lacchi,
Since the reports was upgraded from SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) 2008 to SSRS 2008 R2, this issue cannot be reproduce in our test environment. It’s hard to say the root reason. Maybe it was caused by the upgrade operations. In your scenario, does
the issue occur on all reports, or only this report? If this report is not complicated, we suggest you recreating the report and deploy it to report server.
Hope this helps.

Flash CS5 giving me headaches No Bold style for Arial Unicode MS

Hi,
We recently upgraded to Flash CS5 and now are facing a lot of problems.
I created a static textfield on Stage with publish settings Flash player6 As1.0
I selected the settings as shown in attached screenshot.
The problem is I can't select Bold from styles as it is greyed out. However this work fine in Adobe Flash CS3.
Anyone knows what I may be doing wrong

Hi,
I think this is nothing to do with Flash CS5 but with the font availability in your system. If the font doesn't have bold, italic variants of the font then the Style combo box becomes grayed out as there is no corresponding glyphs available for that. Normally Arial Unicode MS font doesn't have its Bold variant. Some word processor applications (eg MS Word) may do that by just thickening the available glyphs instead of using the actual bold glyphs from the Font which is incorrect.
Thanks!

Arabic text in flash cs5.5

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to confirm that rendering arabic text correctly (from right to left) has to be done in TLF, as I understand from the research I've done so far that it can not be done in classic mode. Also, is setting the direction to "from right to left" enough for it to be displayed correctly? I've seen some comments on people who speak Arab saying it was not displaying correctly in the final SWF. As I can not read Arab I can't really tell...
Can anyone confirm this please?
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know the TLFTextField is the only class currently provided for native support of right to left text. It is only supported by players that were developed concurrent with its arrival, which might account for some not seeing what they expect. From what I have heard there are discrepancies with its performance as well, wherein if you do not need to use it, stick with the classic TextField.

Is it possible for a multilingual Flash application that pulls in dynamic text?

My client requires an app that displays 6 languages, including English, Arabic, Simplified Chinese, Korean, Greek and Vietnamese.
The content for all 6 of these languages must also pull data from either Flash vars or XML.
I heard that there are problems with Arabic text being flipped over, and I'm finding it hard to nail down the right fonts to use. Has anyone had any experience / advice with this?
Thanks in advance for your help.
G

Ok, so I've started running into problems already with Arabic, but also for what I thought were simple Latin-based languages like Vietnamese. It turns out that I cannot simply enter Vietnamese text with all its punctuation into something like an XML data source - it needs some kind of escaped version of the text, or unicode, or whatever... man this is gonna take some researching unless someone can provide some insight!

How to embed Arial Unicode MS in Fla file

Hi
I am new to Flash development hence some of the comments/queries might seem very trivial.
I am working on the flash file which was originally developed for English language. Now client would like to extend it to other languages such as Janpanese, Hindi etc.
Flash component is developed in Windows operating system and CS3 is being used for development.
The flash consists of a movie clip control which shows characters read from external source. Text to displayed is assigned to "htmlText" property.
The fla has embedded a custom font file. The font file customized to replace two glyphs (@ and ?) with gif file. Based on certain condition, "@" and "?" are rendered using custom font
for example.
if (condition == true)
then
movieClip.htmlText = <font face="CustomFont">U0040</font> + {Rest of the text}
Under Text->Font Embedding... dialog box, Character Ranges options has "All glyphs" and "Punctuations"
Under Also include characters --> "@?" are included.
When I try to embed Arial Unicode MS font, None of the unicode characters are displayed. Only custom font character is displayed.
When change the font embedding settings for custom font and remove option "All glyphs" and "Punctuations" and also remove "@?" from "Also include characters"
then unicode characters are displayed by custom font U0004 is not replaced with custom font.
Another observation is: If I install fonts in system then it works fine. But that is not expected behavior end users will not have custom font in their system, neither can I ask them to install.
Can anyone please guide me on this issue?
Regards,
RK

Hi,
What do you mean in "want to embed the font "Arial Unicode MS""?
Do you want to hard code font in UIX code?
Thanks

Arabic Text in Crystal Report

I am having issues in displaying Arabic in crystal report. I am pretty sure that the data stored in Oracle (10g) is okay because when I query the same data using SQL Developer or TOAD, it is fetching and displaying Arabic contents as well. However, when the same query is used in the Crystal report, it is converting Arabic text into some weird Characters like ãÎÊáÝ etc. However, when I type Arabic in Crystal report, it is fine. The only issue is when I retrieve Arabic data from the database in Crystal report and try to show it, it converts it into some weird characters.
I am using Crystal Report 2008 version 12.0.0.x and I used the font of the field to be "Arial Unicode" but still of no use. I even tried changing the font setting from "right to left"; still no use. I have also tried using various fonts like 'Arabic Typesetting", "Arial Unicode", "Arial Narrow" etc but problem is still there.
Any suggestions?

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.
