Arabic font displays in reverse order... i need to load xml file in Flash

Ive got text in arabic in Word doc, written right to left (its times new roman font, arabic characters开发者_运维问答). when I copy & paste in XML, it reverses the direction, becomes left to right.

Im using word 2003 & adobe CS3 i need to load xml file in Flash .

If you use Notepad++ http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ to save your xml file it has an Text Direction option on the View menu, set this to RTL or use CTRL + ALT + R.

If the problem is with in flash, Flash 10 supports RTL languages (see http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/textlayout/), for versions prior to this see How to handle right to left languages in Flash (pre version 10)?, it is possible but not straight forward. I think I resorted to including one displayable line per xml field last time I had to do this.
