Whenever a chunk of text, or text box is pasted into a fresh document, the language is Arabic. [Basic Paragraph] and all other styles have been set to English USA, and even though I do a find format/change format in the offending document, it still pastes as Arabic.

(I am an Adobe Certified Expert in InDesign, by the way,) and this one is a stumper, a glitch. It's not preferences. When a text box is copied from the offending document and into another fresh Indesign document, from another computer (or TO another computer) it still pastes as Arabic, and flushes right.

With no document open go to the Character Panel and make sure that the Language is set to "English USA". Then go into the Paragraph Styles Panel and double-click on the Basic Paragraph Style. In the Advanced Character Formats section make sure that "Language:" is set to English USA. After you've set it in these places, quit InDesign. When you relaunch it will become the default for the program. See screen shot.

Have you checked the Advanced character section of all the Paragraph and Character Styles in the original document for the language used? If there are any of the styles used there that are not defined as English USA then this behavior would not be unexpected. It is also possible that some individual characters in the document might have been defined in the Character Panel as Arabic. If you do a "Select All" in a text frame that is showing this behavior when pasted and look at the character panel and it is blank in the language field then that would mean that there is at least one character in the text that has been defined as Arabic since a blank language field would indicate multiple languages used in the text.

I'm not sure though if what you did would affect existing paragraph and character styles that have been applied. I've done similar find/changes in the past to change fonts globally only to find that it did not affect the fonts indicated in the paragraph and character styles. You may want to make sure that all styles have been changed and then apply them globally through find/change as well.

Hi
I am having similar problems mainly linked to spell checking, it will only spell check in Arabic.
I followed the recommended steps and it works for half the document then defaults to Arabic again despite me closing the programe down and restarting.
It will often import text in capitals despite my preferences being clearly set.
Everything is taking so long

If I create a new document, and copy the information into it, it pastes in arabic. If I then override any style sheets to correct the issue in the second document, and copy it again into a third document, it seems to copy successfully. Obviously that is a long-winded, unsatisfactory solution.

I am having what I think is the exact same problem. I have INDD 2018 English USA version (latest version) on a Mac running OSX 10.12.6. I work in multiple languages for a client and often move back and forth from English to numerous languages such as Chinese, French, etc. I am taking text from a source INDD document and placing it into another INDD document(for example French from one INDD document and pasting it over existing French text in another INDD document, and so on for each language). For this particular project I am working in 6 different languages and in every single language when I paste the text from INDD source file to INDD destination file it pastes it as Arabic (or right to left) composition. Even though none of these languages I am working in are Arabic (or even right to left), the language indicator at the top tool bar switches it to Arabic, changes the text to Adobe World Composer, and makes it flush right (as you would in Arabic). I have to go back each time I cut and paste to change all of these settings. Never have encountered this problem in my years working in multiple languages until now. Adobe staff, have you found any resolution for this issue? It's really slowing my work down. Happy to provide additional information if needed

I'm having the exact same problem and it just started. InDesign is showing the dictionaries as Arabic almost everywhere and I've never used anything but English USA for language. It's now showing USA English in the dictionary prefs panel and shows the correct user dictionary file, but Character panel, spelling panel and spelling prefs panel all show Arabic and when I switch them they automatically switch back, even if I save and quit right after.

Very sad to see this is not answered, but finally I know that I am not alone! It happens regardless of what language I'm pasting. Today it was Chinese- everything came in flush right and the characters were in reverse order, language dictionary was Arabic. One factor that is part of my situation is that the client built the file long ago using the ME version (for whatever reason since they only work in English). To get around this problem I only use Paragraph and Character styles and never any local formatting, then select the entire text and click the Remove All Overrides button in the Styles panel. But I shouldn't have to do that, as we all know.

I am Ahmed Issa from the Gaza Strip, Palestinian territories. I have an idea to translate all the Hubspot Academy content from English to Arabic. As I am really passionate and would like to transfer the marketing knowledge that you have to all Arabic speaking marketing professionals.

The problem in the Arab world is the lack of content in the marketing field and it is not accessible to them due to language barriers, and professional digital marketers must have the right marketing mindset to better execute a digital marketing strategy that attracts, engages, and delight customers and prospects in a helpful humane way.

This will make Hubspot as a source of marketing information to a very large group of digital marketers in the MENA region, as your methodology is so much needed to have relevant marketing messaging and to create great customer experiences.

If you have any further questions and information needed please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you so much for reaching out! We really appreciate your feedback and enthusiasm for teaching others, especially while using the HubSpot Acacdemy content! Unfortunately at this time we don't offer arabic translations for our certifications.
