Arabic and Hebrew features | CC, CS6
New and improved features for working in Arabic and Hebrew are available in the Middle East and North African
edition of this software.
Adobe World-Ready Composers
Adobe World-Ready composers enable you to create content in middle-eastern languages. You can type in, and mix
between, Arabic, Hebrew, English, French, German, Russian, and other Latin languages.
You can choose between available composers from the Paragraph panel menu (Windows > Paragraph > panel menu).
For example, in InDesign, you can use the Adobe World-Ready Paragraph Composer. Or in Illustrator, you can use the
Middle Eastern Single-line Composer.
You can also save your files with Arabic and Hebrew names.
Text direction
To create content in Arabic and Hebrew, you can make the right-to-left (RTL) direction the default text direction.
However, for documents that include left-to-right (LTR) text, you can now seamlessly switch between the two
directions.
Select the paragraph direction from the Paragraph panel.
