Method #

Arabic text strings need to be formatted in order to be displayed in a correctly readable form through a process of reshaping. Different glyphs must be used for a given character depending on where that character appears in the word - the beginning, middle, end or in isolation. For more information, see “the w3 website”:https://www.w3.org/TR/alreq/.

This node reshapes an unshaped Arabic text string so it can be displayed properly. The reshaped text can be used as an input into other nodes - typically the Text node, or to be processed by other text string nodes.

Arabic is written from right to left so enable Right To Left text rendering in any Text nodes used to render this Arabic string.

Parameters

These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
