So if CC no longer supports TLF, is there any long-term option in Flash for right-to-left text?
Will Flex support TLF, and/or have other options for RTL support?

This is something I haven't delved into yet, but may come up soon for a project. It would be good to start in with a long-term path, even if we continue to use CS6 for now!

Thanks,

The Flag player is sheer the support for bi-di text is, and I don't see
Adobe removing it. They would lose most of their Israeli market, as well as
the entire Arab, Persian, and Pakistan markets.

It won't make any difference if you use Flex. It publishes a .swf which
runs on the same player, and MXML is really just a shorthand version of
AS3.

Your problem is really more of an IDE problem. If the player supports TLF,
you just need a way to get it into your. swf.

Cordially,
