Set LTR direction as default

I have a default setting, that every time I type in a text it goes from right to left (like in Hebrew or Arabic). I can't find any solution on how to change this default setting in Photoshop or Illustrator. 

 

Does anyone succeed with this issue?

    For Photoshop please ask in the Photoshop forum.

    For Illustrator: this can be set up in the Character and Paragraph styles, so what you need to do is edit the Default Styles in their panels and then save the file in the New Document Profiles folder. From there Illustrator accesses it in the New Document dialog box. You might not be able to save it directly in that folder. and instead need to move it there after saving.

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

     

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.
