Numbering or Numbered list in arabic problem

Hi, (sorry for my bad english I am a french guy)

 

I have a problem dealing with the numbered list in arabc. As you see on the screenshot, when I come to 10 and over, the arabic just write 01and not 10, 21 not 12 etc.. By the way, the gap between the first numbers is exactly what I wanted, but when I came to 10 and over the gap have been longer.

 

What can I do ? thank you all.

Highlight all your text, open Character Panel, go to the fly-out menu and change the "Character Direction" settings to "Default".

Warning! Although the Default Character direction is the best and is the default setting always, however for you since you had - I think you do - changed in the past the setting to Right-to-Left, this time when you're going to change the setting to Default, some or many of your text may get messed, just watch it.
