    Hi TON Thanks for getting back to me.I want to be specific. THE ENGLISH INTERNATIONAL IS Hebrew support ME ? After I did that I had to install the software again?


    The English International does not Support Hebrew, but the English Hebrew does.

    Yes you have to install the software again.

    Hebrew text reads from right to left.

    Hi guys

    Am I correct in believing that is works as well? By going to Preferences > Type, then selecting Show Indic Options and choosing one of the options for Middle Eastern and South Asian Composer. To my eye it looks like Hebrew text is now correct, but I was hoping that someone with more experience in using Hebrew could confirm this?

    Hey, I wanted to typeset in Hebrew and had a hard time to figure out why the direction were reversed when I copy paste it. Your solution worked perfectly for me. Thank you very much!!

    Install the English Hebrew version of CC. I would recommend to install a previous version (CC 17.0) in addition to the current CC(2014) 18.0 version, because switching between the English version and the English Hebrew version is impossible (maybe someone someday will come up with a smart script).

    There is no text direction in Illustrator options. The link is for inDesign
