Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi Hashmatullah,

What do you mean by "words are shown spread in model view"? I don't know Arabic, but the words inside rooms on the plan don't look "spread".

I remembered that a similar question had already been asked here:

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-for-mac-forum/arabic-text-in-autocad-for-mac/td-p/5664048/highlight/true

I suggested that one can use only SHX fonts in order to input Arabic in AutoCAD, but the main problem unfortunately was not solved.

The letters are individuallly displayed in the screenshot: Arabic is a cursive language where letters in a single word are strung (or looped) together instead.

Hi Dean,

Yes, I already figured this out after I reread the topic I mentioned in my second post.
Do you know the solution for this issue? How Arabic input works on PC side?
