Entering Arabic language text into After Effects without assistance fails because Arabic flows right-to-left while English flows left-to-right. Simply reversing the text (for example using the TextReverser script) does not work because the letters don’t link properly after they are reversed. This script deals correctly with medial letterforms and flows the text from right to left.
Since After Effects is built to work with text that flows from left to right, certain directional animation presets like “Typewriter” don’t work with RTL languages. We can’t re-engineer all of the presets but we will try to do some of the popular ones:
RTL Animation Presets: (Install in Presets folder)
- Typewriter-RTL Currently this preset only works with 2 keyframes that reveal the text from beginning to end. – Demo Video
-
- ArabicText UI

Outstanding! A real time saver.
You rock señor! I really really really appreciate your script! FYI I use it to display farsi characters and it does the trick!
That is the ONE. All Arabic Designers was waiting for it, Thank you very very very much.
Thank you Loay
Hi,
for some reason the script is not working with me I load it from the window panel and the pasted text appears ok in the script’s window but when I press ok some of the text or most of the text is missing and the letters are not tied up together. I’m on a Mac OSX 10.6.2 and use CS4.
What text are you trying? I recorded the demo on OSX 10.6.2 and CS4 so it is not a platform issue.
Ok. Probably was a problem with my font library on the computer. I was using Geeza. Tested it on another computer and it worked nicely with Arabic GE fonts and X fonts. Amazing work Mate. Thank you.
Hi:
I have a question about this script…
Is it possible to make the text flow on a path, or just straight movement. and is it possible to apply all the text effects on it
thanks a lot in advanced
Yes, the script creates a normal AE text layer that you can do anything you want with including putting it on a path and applying text effects to it.
Thanks a lot for your reply Lloyd.
As noted in the comment below, text effects that rely on direction such as the typewriter effect will not work since the flow is reversed in Arabic.
that a wonderful thing when we find solutions for problems of writing, Baraka allahu feik
i bought the arabic script. the TYPEWRITER effect will not work the way i expected with this script. the text will run in from right to left. so i tried all changes with the text animator. the type will run from left to right but only from down to up. so is there a solution to let the typewriter work from right to left AND from the top to the bottom? any help would be fine. thx
Thank you for the explanation. I am working on it.
Please check out the Typewriter-RTL animation preset just added to the post above.

my greeting from morocco
Thanks, very nice. the only issue I am having that would be a time saver is, if I paste text I can not organize it by using the enter key to seperate text into multiple lines, I am having to do it line by line, is there a way around it, also can this script be applied to Premiere Pro? Thanks
Use Ctrl + Enter for new line

hi,
thanks a lot for the script! really useful tool. but there seems to be a problem when working with multi-line textfields: when typing a (multi-line) sentence, the punctuation mark is in the first line. is manually switching all of the lines the only way to get around this..?
thanks in advance,
