Arabic fonts in title tool

[Travis Boyle]

I asked the same question a couple of months ago, I couldn’t get it to work. I ended up using photoshop to create the graphics and then importing the .psd files w/transparent backgrounds into Avid.

We gave up on Avid for Arabic text. It used to work in Xpress (Meridien) up to around version 4.5 on OS 9. But later versions, including PC Media Composers gave us problems with spacing and kerning. Avid could not find a solution, so we moved Arabic production to Final Cut Pro and have no problems with text in Arabic.
