Hi,

Illustrator is not supporting Arabic numeric after 24.03 version. That's why I can't update the illustrator till then. I am in India and using some Arabic fonts for my artworks like adobe Arabic, Geeza pro, Damascus.. etc. When I do Convert to curve the fonts, all the Arabic numeric will disappear. This is the main issue.

I have tried the latest version 25.1, this app also I am facing the same problem.

Please give me a solution for this.

Thanks

english/arabic support"in the creative cloud app before installing to have a complete support for arabic.

it is good that you shared your document.

After checking it in my Illustrator v. 25.1 that supports Arabic well. I found nothing wrong with your document, it is just that some of your Arabic text frames were typed in wiered way. I re-typed same sentences in your Arabic text frame and kept same font, converted it to outline and all was showing after the conversion.

See the snapshot below, the second line of Arabic text shows the Paragraph symbol on the wrong end, and actually, we shouldn't see a Paragraph symbol there, it should show # hashtag for the end of story instead. Basically, I retyped the sentence and all went well after that!

So, to confirm, you do have Illustrator with Arabic support, that's why you were able to work with your document and handled Arabic well to some extent, it is just some text frames were typed wrongly - I guess - but I was able to fix it by retyping them, then converting them to Oultine.
