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.

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
