I need to use some animated Arabic text in an After Effects file that I'm working on, but I don't have the
'Text Engine' option in my menu to change it to ‘South Asian and Middle Eastern’:

I just upgraded my After Effects from 2020 to 2022 and I face the same issue when using Asian Languages. Then I found the working method. Select your text then go to "Character Panel", click on more options and check on "Ligatures". Hope this can help.

I'm facing some typing issues, I want to type Arabic and Urdu but can't because when I type Urdu and Arabic After Effect types in English format not in Arabic or Urdu format.

You just have to uninstall this version and install one supporting arabic.
You choose the language from the drop list when while.

Hey,

It was a deliberate move to remove that from Preferences because you no longer have to choose either /ơr between Latin and South-Asian scripts.

The new Adobe Text Engine is equipped to support both intelligently.

Are you facing any trouble typing in?

[wajdi28195784vtv4]

The same problem for the Arabic language
I tried all previous solutions but it didn't work

[ardalan ansari]

Yes , I'm still experiencing the problem. I wish Adobe had left the option to manually change the engine in case your AI didn't recognize the text. Is there any way I can fix this problem?

I also encountered this problem, the program can not automatically detect that I have RTL Israeli text. And I can't find any options to do it manually.

Hello,

Could you please tell me your system specifications and the After Effects version you are using.

Old MOGRTs have stopped working with Indic language in the new Premier Pro. Any solution for that? Or I have to re-edit and re-save each of them with AE?

[hiral_5699]

We're facing Problem in Hindi language even after Update the After Effect.    That was Dumb choice to Remove that.  Please Add it back again.
