Help with RTL language support

  • August 19, 2018

Hi all,

I know that as of version 14.2 AE has built in RTL language support.

I've set the correct language engine in the text preferences and pressed the RTL button in the Paragraph tab.

AE insists on rendering my texts as LTR and it doesn't use ligatures.

It's as if AE is still using the Latin engine in spite of the engine that is set in the preferences.

I did restart AE and even tried to reinstall it.

Any ideas?

    Here it is:


    very puzzling. restart Ae and open a new composition. create a new text layer (layer->new->text layer) choose a typical hebrew font like Arial hebrew regular and try again

    make sure you create a new text layer:
    1.  do not copy paste from another text layer
    2. do not have a text layer highlighted when you create a new text layer.


    please show an example with screenshots of the issue

    Hi Roei,

    I set up an new project, then add a new composition, and finally a new text layer.

    Text is shown Left to Right.
