I'm used to having problems with After effects when it comes to Arabic. But, this used to be fixed by going to 

 

After effects/preferences/Type and choose /south Asian and middle east

 

Now this doesn't exist when I go to <type>

 

Any ideas how to fix this?

      Just like @Mathias Moehl mentioned, the new text engine in After Effects v.22.4.0 should support All languages "out of the box" including Arabic.

      Now I'm not an Ae user, however, I wanted to know the font you're using, is it working in other Adobe applications like Photoshop?

      Hello. I have an issue with Adobe After Effects v.22.5.0. 

      My arabic text is: هُـــوَ الْإِ لَۤـــهُ وَ هُــوَ الــرَّحْمَـــانُ 

      But the render is wrong with AE while with Photoshop is fine.

      1) How can I have the same render in AE?

      2) Which setting should I do to have the same render like Photoshop?

      Correct Render:

       

      Wrong Render:

      Please could you help me to solve this issue?

      As far as I know, new Ae versions use a new, unified text engine that can deal with all kinds of texts - including Arabic text. In other words: the option is gone, since you should not need it anymore. Do you run into any specific issues?
