Hi everyone,

I'm trying to create an Arabic Word document from an ITD file in SDLX 2007 SP2.

After creating the translation from the SDLX menu, I open the RTF but the Arabic texts appears from left to right - although I have set the translation font to "Arabic" before.

Note that I use a German Word version and added Arabic to my "Language Bar".

Can you please give me a hint on what I'm doing wrong here?

Thank you very much!

Hi Anneta,

Gruezzi,

Open the document, go to "Select all", then go to "Right-to-Left Text Direction button, you will have the text reorganized as you wish...


Freundliche Grüsse aus die CH...
