Question
Hi, When I type arabic in windows Word,it is ok, but when I copy to Illustrator cs2 it is not ok.
Hi there.
Sorry to have to say that Illustrator does not support the character sets of some non-Roman fonts (e.g., Arabic, Hebrew, or Cyrillic), even when you are using the Arabic Windows language kit or Arabic version of the operating system.
Adobe suggests that you consider purchasing the Middle Eastern version of Illustrator. Adobe Illustrator CS -ME.
Good luck, I know that's frustrating.

Expertise
I can help troubleshoot your Illustrator 9 through CS3 (and most CS4) problems and suggest the best way to get the results you need. Although I can help with some installation issues, my forte is prepress and how to use the tools and functions in the application itself.
Experience
I've been a graphic artist for over 20 years. Oh my God, 20 years.
