NoemieD Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Due to the numerus post addressing the topic and the related answers, I guess that nothing has changed since then, but I would like to stress out how RTL and arabic / hebrew / ... language support is an important feature not only for the middle east market but also for anyone working on calligraphy. best regards doc.ask and orian 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixelmac Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 What a shame indeed that such respected developer find it so difficult to implement RTL, while other smaller (single) developers do provide it. pointery and orian 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan lavosky Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Today I got client from Middle East. I have to use Inkscape just to write Arabic RTL phrase then import it from there. If Affinity Designer is meant for professional use, please don't make it half baked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omer242 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Arabic support is the only missing feature I can think of when using Affinity Photo. I hope that the development team spends some time tackling it. Many modern Operating Systems have built-in support for RTL and specially Arabic language and the team can also benefit from open source projects that have this support.

Areeb Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) Please support RTL and Arabic Text in your next versions. It's really pain in the ass to import text layers as PDF from Pages App. ------------------- I know 3 friends of mine using same method Edited May 5, 2020 by Areeb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beery Shklar Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 It is really annoying to not have RTL support, I have to flip every single frase. Even just an easy way to flip the text will be much better (Which shouldn't be hard). The funny thing is that in the `Character` menu there's an option to select the character's language as hebrew even though the hebrew language is not actually supported! (But it does change some things...) Also, when i name layers in hebrew it does flip the text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
