Hi there,

 

Sorry about this trouble. Thanks for confirming that you are using the Middle East and North African edition of InDesign. I would suggest you to try the steps shared in this help article (https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/arabic-hebrew.html) and see if that helps to resolve the issue.

 

Let us know how it goes.

Regards,

Anshul Saini

To get the right to left language options you'll need to install the MENA (Middle East/North Africa) version of ID.

Should be available from the CC app.

Thank Peter, as Adbe suggested  I switched temporarly my account adobe to hebrew languages and then I've installed my ID againg and I was sercheing for MENA font in the Adobe font, but MENA doesn't exist, there is only Myriad , Adobe and Noto as hebrew language.

Unfortunally doesn't still work, this set up didn' t fix any thing, the direction of the hebrew texts are still wrong way. 

There is any body can help me? Thanks
