Please enhance the support for Arabic translation projects in Trados Studio (desktop software).

Arabic is one of the six official languages of the United Nations, used by hundreds of millions of people worldwide, and is written from right to left. However, Trados Studio (desktop software) currently does not display some Arabic translation projects correctly. Please address this issue as soon as possible. For example, after converting files using the sdllixff converter and importing them into Trados Studio (desktop software), the display order of Arabic in Trados Studio is incorrect and noticeably different from the content in Microsoft Word documents.

    من اجل تصحيح اتجاه النص في القطع النصية ذات الأرقام 10 إلى13
    قم بتحديد كامل النص بالقطعة النصية ثم قص النص ثم أدخل علامة RTL من شريط التنسيق
    ثم الصق النص، بذلك سيتم قلب اتجاه النص ويصبح صحيحًا

    Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R

    -------------------------

    To correct the text direction in segments numbered 10 to 13
    Select all the text in the segment, then cut the text, then enter the RTL tag from the formatting bar
    Then paste the text, this will reverse the text direction and make it correct

    I always use this to fix BiDi RTL Arabic combined with Latin characters

  • Dear Mr Muhammad Khateeb, 

    I tried you method, but it seem that it can not work. 

    the target text is from right to left already. 

    for the other segments is correct in Arabic language, but for the segment with mathematical symbols, units. trados studio (computer software) can not work well. 

    Screenshot of Trados Studio software with an open project. The Editor pane shows a list of segments with Arabic text and mathematical symbols. A red arrow points to a segment with a note indicating an issue with handling right-to-left text.

    Best regards
