Traditional Arabic Fonts

Why Adobe Reader for Android dont support this fonts.

You'll have to contact WinSoft for support of Photoshop ME.
My first guess is that you've got some bad Arabic fonts (yes, most of them are poorly constructed).

  • Arabic font problem in Indesign cs4

    I was using Indesign CS2 and just upgraded to CS4. I was heavily using "traditional arabic" font in CS2 without any problem.
    For those who don't know, in arabic, each letter is represented differently according to its place inside a word. Almost all letters have 4 different forms, at the begining, in the middle at the end and alone.
    After the upgrade I can insert only the letter at the begining form. I can clearly see all fonts in all forms in glpyhs table.
    Any suggestion ?
    Thank you

    This not a locked Windows font because I was using it in Indesign CS2 without any problem.
    In Help>About section all I see, is CS4 6.0. So this in not a Middle Eastern version.
    For the moment I found the following solution :
    I found an Open Type Arabic Font.
    When I type something with this font "propositional forms" setting is set to "General", this is the default setting and I was unable to set "Automatic" as default. First I type something in Arabic then I select the text and set "propositional forms" setting to "Automatic".Yes it is a little bit cumbersome but  this is the only solution I found.
    I could send font files to anybody if you want to try them . It is not allowed to send them as attachment

  • Arabic fonts in InDesign CS6

    I¹m looking for some help regarding Arabic fonts on Mac InDesign CS6 (Adobe Creative Suite 5.5).
    I¹ve designed a company profile in English and they need it to be translated into Arabic for their Middle Eastern branch. They¹ve sent the correct Arabic copy in a Word document but the moment I copy it into InDesign it corrupts and becomes illegible. I¹ve looked on the Adobe and Apple forums but can¹t find a solution for the problem.
    This is a Mac problem because one of my friends have InDesign for Windows and the font works 100% on her version. I think the problem is that the Arabic font was written for Windows and is therefore not compatible with Mac.

    This is a Mac problem because one of my friends have InDesign for Windows and the font works 100% on her version.
    Mmmmaybe.
    Can you tell us the name of the font?  In which version of Word is the Arabic rendering correctly? Do you have a known-good PDF to compare your Arabic against? If not, how do you know that the Arabic is rendering correctly anywhere?
    It was my understanding that Mac Word simply can't handle right-to-left scripts like Arabic, so it's possible that your translation provider has used a very old font that fakes the cursive connections between letters in Arabic. It could also be the case that the font is Arial - versions of Arial installed with Office for Mac traditionally don't have Arabic glyphs because Mac Office has not offered RTL support for Arabic. But the font technologies used in Windows for Arabic support (both in TrueType and OpenType) do, in fact, work on the Mac, assuming the font was made by someone who knew what they were doing.
    Both Peter and shnath offer good advice. I am a big proponent of World Tools, but in CS6 if you have a correctly formatted Word document you should be able to just place it and get RTL behaviors, if the font used has Arabic support.
    Lastly:
    I¹ve designed a company profile in English and they need it to be translated into Arabic for their Middle Eastern branch.
    I don't do much commercial work myself (I'm more of a nonprofit, social-service guy) but a "company profile" sounds to me like something that should be typeset by a graphic designer who actually reads the language. You are working on some kind of marketing or business speech intended for distribution in a culture where good calligraphy and typography are very important. It is unfortunately very easy for those of us who are not immersed in these calligraphic traditions to accidentally do something equivalent to formatting a press release in sixteen-point Comic Sans. So if you keep posting in this thread we can get you to the point where your Arabic copy is legible, and probably to the point where it's not embarassing. But if your clients need anything more than basic legibility, you may want to hand this off to someone who is an in-language professional.

  • Arabic fonts not working in Illustrator CS4 on MacBook Pro

    I have a bunch of Arabic fonts installed on my computer but can't use them on Illustrator.
    For some reason, they are on my dropdown Font list but Illustrator is not letting me use them.
    Arabic letters are meant to be connected to one another to form words and the fonts are not being applied correctly. The letters come out separated instead of connected.
    Do I need to download something to be able to use them?
    Thanks!

    To  be more precise what is required is the Illustrator ME or on of the Suites also the ME version, which is the Middle East version. Adobe designates the version using the intials ME.
    That will work with both Arabic and Hebrew.
    Otherwise you have to one type backwards and use tracking of a negative amount sufficient to have the letters touch and make a character style and apply it to all text you  want arabic.
    Best to have the ME version.

  • I can't use some Arabic fonts in Firefox.. How to use them?

    I am trying to use special Arabic fonts in my html page that I run locally. So I created an html page that contains an Arabic font. The font was displayed as it should be in IE and Chrome, but the same font wasn't displayed in Firefox.
    Can the same font be displayed it Firefox?

    Additional Details:
    When I go to: Tools --> Options.. --> Content --> Default Font.
    Then the list doesn't contain the wanted fonts.

  • TLF in Flash CS4 showing ??? with Arabic fonts

    I got TLF to function on my work computer (XP-32) with no trouble.
    However, at home (XP-64), when I type in the TLF box in CS4, I only get ????? showing.If I copy and paste Arabic from Notepad into the text box, the arabic text shows up with no problem. I've tried using Adobe Arabic, Transparent Arabic, and Standard Arabic font with the same results.
    I don't know if this has anything to do with it but when I first installed the TLF component, it set it up in my Flash CS3 extension manager. After deleting it from there, I installed it again to the CS4 extension manager.
    Has anyone else had this situation? I can't figure out why my work computer and home computer are behaving differently.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi azeem
    I have been learning how to deal with arabic fonts now in flash10 and from what i have read up so far adobe has stopped updating the TLF component and it is been said it will only reappear with flash11 again. So if there is a bug with 64 bit os , then it is stuck like that for now. Another point to mention while using the forums and from personal testing is that the adobe arabic font will not handle diacritics correctly. You should try use Arial version 4 (the arial that ships with vista , the arial that shipped with xp is also faulty).

  • I have everything set for Arabic fonts and the keyboard as well. When I type in WORD or EXCEL I just get individual Arabic letters, but they never connect, they should be for example like this   الس    but they always appear like that ا ل س

    MS Word for Mac has never supported Arabic.  You have to use other apps.  Mellel is best, but Pages 5, TextEdit, Nisus Writer, or Open/LibreOffice should work OK.
    Sometimes you can make Word for Mac do connected Arabic if you are editing a document created with Windows Word.

  • Problem with Arabic font: In certain contexts, when writing Arabic with vowel signs (fatha, damma, kasra, sukun) a sequence of sukun   fatha/damma etc. would reverse automatically. Is this a known bug?

    Problem with Arabic font: In certain contexts, when writing Arabic with vowel signs (fatha, damma, kasra, sukun) a sequence of sukun + fatha/damma etc. would reverse automatically. Is this a known bug?
    Example: عَيْنٌ
    would automatically convert to عَيُنْ
    Funnily, it doesn't seem to happen here, but it does when entering text in a web interface (using Firefox, font Bayan) and when using Text Edit.
    Seems to be a problem of a specific font, as e.g. Arial MS Unicode works fine. Any hints?
    Thank you!

    You can't do Arabic on MS Word for Mac.  This app has never supported RTL scripts, so you need to use something else.  Mellel is best, but Pages 5, TextEdit, Nisus Writer, Open/LibreOffice should work OK.
    You switch between languages by using the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen or by using the keyboard shortcuts apple/command plus space.  Go to system prefs/keyboard/shortcuts to make sure that is activated.
    To see which key does what, you use Keyboard  Viewer.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13746
    You place vowels on letters by typing the key for the vowel after the key for the letter.  The vowels are on the option/alt keys, option/alt + a gives you َ

  • Safari not displaying Arabic font

    In Firefox I am able to change the Fonts and Colors (Preferences>Content>Fonts and Colors) so Firefox will use an Arabic font (e.g. Geeza Pro) that works on pages with mixed English and Arabic text. I can't find how to do this in Safari. Right now it's displaying a default simple font. I've tried deleting duplicate MS Office fonts but that didn't work.

    Could you send me a screenshot of what you are seeing (tom at bluesky dot org) and also provide the url? Normally Safari should always use Geeza Pro. Perhaps I can identify what is interfering.
