Flash :: Using Arabic Langauge In Flash

Multi-langauge Text In Flash MX W/ XML
Hi all, I have a question for you concerning using XML-based data in different languages outside of the Western character map.

I know that you can input the unicode numbers (for example, 'uXXXX') as a variable for text, however, that same method doesn't work when pulling the unicode numbers from XML.

Does anyone know how I would go about pulling unicode from a XML doc? Any help would rock.

Thanks!

[F8] Arabic With Flash
Hello All,
I'm using (a modified version of) Flaraby to show Arabic text in a Flash app. Well, I'm trying to use...
I get the correct string from the serverside script (or an equivalent one in AS) , the trace shows the correct string (reversed, of course) but when I put the text into a dynamic TF the letters don't join, the same as when using no script at all with embedded font, as if I got the wrong unicode characters.
Now, I need to have the font embedded, using device fonts is not an option.

I do not use an Arabic OS, if that matters.
If anyone bumped into such a situation and has a word of advice for me...

thanks a lot

Arabic In Flash CS4
Ok - I'm running into the same barriers in Flash CS4 with not being able to work with Arabic as I have in the past. I thought this time there was going to be a solution? PLEASE let me know if there is something that I need to do to get Flash to cooperate with Arabic text. Having it appear backwards but then render correctly in run time will not do. It reeks havoc when working with the layout.

Please help. Thanks.

Writting Arabic In Flash MX
Impossible apparently!

So far the story is....

Obviously I've change the setting in system pref>International to Arabic. U then have to use a unicode program like text edit to type the words out and then use screen shots which u then can paste into flash.

Is there another way?

Many thanks for any responses.

Arabic In Flash Through Xml - Dynamicaly
here is an example for all the people who need to put right to left languages in flash like arabic,persian and urdu etc.

http://creativeuae.wordpress.com/200...using-xml-css/

I made this small application by using xml and css styles.
all the text is coming from xml and i put the style in it too which are controlling the arabic text. By the way i used TextArea component.

If you need to put arabix text in textbox that is much easir if you need an example for that drop a line.

Arabic In Flash CScs3
Hello,

I have been trying to copy arabic text from a Word doc into Flash CS3 with no success. The text comes out broken and backwards looking.

I have scoured this Web site and the Internet for the past month looking for solutions that don't seem to work- or that cost money that I do not believe I need to spend (software).

I am hoping someone out there can point me towards a solution!

Thank you so much!

RE: Farsi, Hindi And Arabic In Flash
Hi there,

I would appreciate it if someone could shed a little light on the subject of displaying Farsi, Hindi and Arabic characters in Flash.

I know that through reading a text file (in flash MX) one can display unicode characters, and have got this working with the russian language, however, i can not get it to display the three aformentioned.

They will not even disply in my notepad, and am going crazy trying to figure out why this has happens.

Has anyone experienced the same problems?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for all your time

Help CSS Unicode (Arabic) Not Working Flash 8
Please help!

I have a crazy issue that I have hit my wit's end with. I have a .fla file with dynamic text boxes that I populate using an XML file. All the XML text is Arabic encoded in UTF-8. The text is only one word for each text box, so I am not concerned that BIDI is not supported. It works fine on Windows Flash Player 8 (the letters connected, reads right to left). On a Mac with OSX Flash Player 8, the text is reading correctly from right to left, BUT all of the letters are disconnected. Using only a text box (without CSS) set to Arial, configured to use device fonts, the text is connected again.

It is as if flash is not suing the correct font encoding for the Unicode fonts. Please help if you have any ideas!!! Thanks in advance!

Can I Embed Arabic Text In Flash?
1. If so, how can I do this? When I cut and paste an arabic text from a notepad or photoshop, all the characters comes out wrong.

2. I believe I can use an external txt or xml file instead. But if I do this, would the user be able to get the right characters / fonts if they don't have the arabic fonts on their machines?

thanks in advance.

YES You Can Write Arabic In Flash....dont Miss This
you have tried so manytimes to write arabic in flash but you couldnt!

2-write anything in AL-RASSAM program then click on Edit>copy&min
3-go to flash then press CTRL+V

after that go and choose one of the font that came with AL-RASSAM.
4-go to flas menu : veiw>anitilis text

you are done...

next time i will explain more but i hope this help.

and i will try to remember were did i get al-rassam from

Flash Support For ARABIC FONTS (ligatures)
ok, i just spent some time learning how to develop my own font (using FontLab) because I want to create an Arabic font of my own for use with flash.
However, I just noticed that when I try and input characters into Flash 8's text box, the Open Type layout tables aren't supported. Is tehre something I can do to fix this?
To give you an example, Times New Roman has some characters that, when placed next to one another, from different characters, such as these:
با = ا + ب
notice that this text editor supports the change, since all i did to type the third one is place the first two characters next to one another.
I have tried this with every different type of font i know (including Times New Roman) and the characters will not merge...
is there ANY way of doing this?
So far, the only method i can think up is creating my own font with every possible character included (which is QUITE large since there are also diacratic marks) so that I can use the character map to create the proper string of characters that I want...
any help is appreciated.

Arabic Support In Flash (Seems Buggy / Non Existant)
******BUG******
I'm trying to use Arabic characters. In the flash CS3 help under "Supported Character Sets" it does say Arabic is supported.
When selecting text or inserting spaced in text the flash player 9 appears very buggy. e.g. when selecting text the characters change as you select etc. If you try to insert spaces into it it just does not work. This is when using device fonts only. If you embed the text field it just simply does not display the correct characters at all.

Step 1:
Make new flash movie inflash CS3.

Step 2:
Make a large input field.

Step 3:
Paste a few characters into the field in the authoring environment. (My arabic string I am using is العربية ...

When I paste in with the authoring environment the characters completely change. (No idea why) If I set the field to not embed and export the string matches the original characters that I pasted (the correct characters)
If I do embed hte font. It comes out the same as the authoring environment (Wrong.. totally different characters.. (Althouth they do appear arabic))

So hence I believe there is a bug in flash players right-to-left languages. Whilst doing a lot of searching about this issue I notice many other people with the issue. Seems right-to-left languages are just not supported at all.

Can anyone please give me an indication on whether this is going to be fixed.. not fixed... fixed in the next version etc?

Flash Player 9 (CS3) Arabic Right-to-left (right To Left) Typing In Input Fields
Any input field (when typing arabic) should type right ot left rather than left to right.
Does ANY version of flash/flash player support right-to-left typing in arabic or any other right-to-left language.

I really urgently need an official answer saying yes or no.
I can see that flash supports arabic characters etc but as far as I can see it does not support the right-to-left typing.

Arabic Fonts
Hi, first of all sorry if my English is not quite good. I am making a project in which a Flash page must be translated in different languages, and I've been requested to do it also in arabic... Does anybody know how to put arabic characters in Flash?? I have the translation in a Word document, but after trying many times I'm not capable of passing it to Flash... I've already been suggested of using the letters as images, but this is imposible as I have to put the text in variables for using during the execution...
Thanks for all
