thanks for reply... I translated to a unicode
text file and the file looks fine in notepad but on subtitle import it flips. I
am running 7.6 v3 by the way. I tried to copy and paste individual
subtiltes and DS flips them in both titles tools. I am using arial but
tried humanist ans times and they all behave the same. Why does other
windows programs know how to deal with arabic but DS does not??? Also in notepad
file I typed "abc" at end of arabic title and that came in "abc" in ds.
confused??

Larry,
I've used the subtitle a lot (just not with Arabic) and never had any
problems. So, I would recommend making the Word doc into a .txt file and open
that in Notepad to verify that all the characters are the same. If they are,
then load that with the subtitle tool. If not, then make sure the font is
loaded correctly (which font are you using?).
If that does not work, you have the ability to look in character map tool
(in windows) to find the character there...you can then copy it from that app
and paste it (replacing the bad character) into the DS title tool. Make sense?
Good luck.
Paul

DS is reversing the direction of letters when
importing arabic subtitles. Word reads them correctly and the subtitle file
is correct, but on import they get reversed. Now using 3d title I can
reverse direction but can't find that in 2d title tool. Also can not find
right to left direction instruction in subtitle template. Anyone get this to
work? thanks
