Arabic language support
 
________________________________________________________________________

Applicable Environment
________________________________________________________________________
  • Topic: Arabic language support in Photon
  • SDP: 6.5.0
  • Target: Any supported target
________________________________________________________________________

Solution
________________________________________________________________________

As of 6.5.0 we don"t support Arabic fonts in Photon. Nor do we support Arabic input.

The main issue is the direction in which Arabic text is laid out: the text goes from right to left which we don't support. Customers have worked around this limitation by just printing Arabic text and numbers separately or did all printing with images. Fonts are available from third party vendors.
