Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to print both Arabic and English in the same printout. I have checked for the OSS notes and other links in SDN and made the below settings in my system:
1) Device type: ARSWIN
2) Smartform orginal language: Arabic (RTL)
3) Printing logon language : English
4) Arabic fonts are available : SPAD shows ANDALE_J as the font used. Code page that got generated was 4102.
Problem 1) Directly type Arabic text in smartform
In this case, the Arabic text gets mirrored in printout
Problem 2) Using STRING_REVERSE FM to reverse the Arabic text in Standard text
Here, the standard text shows arabic text correctly. But when it gets assigned to a variable to pass to FM, arabic text changes to some other Arabic text. The changed Arabic text gets printed correctly in the print out.
I have tried to release the Arabic text from word and the printout comes correctly, so I am guessing its not printer fonts causing the issue. Please advise how I can solve the mirroring issue or if not, why the text is getting changed when I pass to variable. How can I correct this.
Best Regards,
Anila
