We have installed the demo of world tool indesign plugin to test whether we can add Arabic text to our Indesign brochure. However, we are experiencing problems with the right to left direction. If we have pasted the text in the plugin in the correct direction, the actual text in the Brochure does not have the same direction in the right to left alignment. Please see the example in the screenshot below.

 

So our main question is. How can we get the Arabic text in the right direction when added from right to left?

Hi,

I'm not really sure what you are trying to do.

Why are you pasting text into the APID panel? That panel is not meant for use with text. It was created for advanced event-driven scripting.

To use World Tools, you need to enable the World Ready Composer. There is a menu item under World Tools to do that. The paragraph direction and paragraph alignment are two different things, and you can have a right-to-left paragraph left aligned and vice versa.

Dear Harbs,

 

thank you for your quick reply and sorry for my late answer to you. We've solved the problem already.

 

Best regards,
