    Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Standard do support Arabic in many ways such as filling up forms, adding comments, and the like. Acrobat however will fail mostly in editing a PDF with Arabic content, for instance if you want to add or edit text to non-form text frames.

      ‎Good day,

      ‎I’m a frequent user of the Adobe DC and I use it on all of my PDF, my problem that it’s not showing the Arabic fonts on editing to a PDF file or Singing it, like if I want to add the word “سلام” it will show it like “س ل ا م” separating each character. I tried the support for couple of years and was updating my versions as available, but still not working.

      ‎Waiting for your support & feedback.

      ‎Thanks,

      ‎Nabeel

      Nabeel, I believe you're referring to the "Fill & Sign", if so then this feature doesn't support Arabic till now. Here is a post about the progress of this feature on the "Bug report" portal.
