Already installed Arabic fonts are not supporting from last one week. On the fonts option we can see the font name but its not supporting text. To understand more some screenshots attaching below. If anyone knows the solution please let me know

Adobe announced back in 2013 that their applications will stop supporting Axt fonts as these fonts were developed as an Arabic extension for the QuarkXpress application.

Since then we had a bit of luck with some Axt fonts, but the luck is over and users must look for better and supporting Arabic fonts, I strongly advise you to acquire an OpenType font from a reputable vendor.

As for Axt Manal, here is a similar font named GE Alma which you can purchase from the vendor.

Hello @almufeedp72887973,

 

Sorry to hear about this experience. I would request you to try and check if the aforementioned Arabic Fonts render correctly on other applications like Word and share your observations.

 

Looking forward to your response.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav
