Have you tried setting the option in Preferences to allow right to left text?

Did you paste the text from Notepad as plain text?

Then I suggest you log this will Adobe as a bug.  However, I fear you would have little chance of getting Adobe to fix this issue in Captivate 2019 at this late stage now that a new version of Captivate is being developed.

Hi,

When I add english text between the arabic text the alignment is not proper. The words are getting interchanged.

Do you put both languages in the same text container? I imagine that can lead to issues. By 'container' I mean either a caption or a shape.

Please try using a text container for each language. I am not sure that will result in what you want, but I am not astonished that it is not working in one container.

Hello,

Has anyone had a problem with punctuation for Hebrew showing up on the right of the text instead of the left? Nothing I do seems to fix this problem, including selecting "Requires an indic composer for Indo-Arabic language support" and the "Right to left" box just below it. Appreciate any assistance!
