Question

Mixing Arabic and English Text

Hi everybody,

I am having problem with arabic text too.

I managed to insatall the ME version so that I have kashidas and text orientation features.

My problem is that in chapter numbering (western alphabet) it inverts the position of numbers (I.E. 1.3 becomes 3.1, as per screenshot attached).

If I change text orientation or alignment it affects the whole sentence/title. In the paragraph-style panel, in bullet and numbered list I can't find some kind of "numbering orientation option". I can't manage even attributing to the numbered-list style a character-style with left-to-right orientation.

Any advise?

    Kindly post your question in a new post in InDesign forum since your question is about InDesign not Illustrator. We will insha' Allah assist you with your question there.
