I'm not sure about this.

Do you see anything at all?

If you can't see any text, make sure the font size is not too big for the resolution of your image. Sometimes fonts can be big even at a relatively small point size.

My fiance is Persian (different language, but simular challenge) and we did a project in photoshop and she ended up writing the Farsi words on paper, then we scanned them and cleaned up. Just ended up being easier than trying to get Photoshop to think Right from Left.

I doubt this will help you much, but I wanted you to know you are not alone in Ancient Language Challenges in Photoshopping! Very Happy

Make sure your text is a different color than the background,
sounds obvious, but it happens Smile

Thank you very much for all your answers

Exactly I mentioned Arabic Alphabit becuase it is more recognised than persian.
I want write persian, which I get this promblem.

Text size and background are ok.

Now I did some changes in windows language setting, I can write persian but all charicters in capital as you might know in pesrian and arabic characters will stcik together to form a word some time they will be in capital as part of a word, but I can write in capital which is meaningless for reader, when I type the word I see the correct reading in layer name what I write, but in images all in capital.

Example: I type داکتر but photoshop display داک ت ر
which is same but in capital in pesrian reading meaningless.

If copy and past the word which not readable in photoshop to another programme like MS Word I get the correct reading.

Hello Dad,

I have exactly the same problem. Even thoughthe fonts are installed correctly and I can type everywhere else right to left, Photoshop keep writing from Left to right, which causes all letters being capital letters and therefire meaningless.

Have you solved this problem and may you please shar eit with me?

Many thanks
Houman

Samuel,

Actually it isn't a bad idea. I wrote the title of my Website in Persian in Word, Copied and pasted in in Photoshop that is automatically as a picture. I Took the select wizard and selected on the white background of the pasted pic and inverted the selected, now only my Word was selected. Then I could copy and paste just the word without the background into my real picture.

Works great. Many thanks. I did some researh only Photoshop Middleeast can do what we want. How sad is that, since their fonts don't work compliant with the standard.

Regrads
Houman

If this is coming up often for you, you might want to consider looking into "middle eastern" adobe versions - looks like these have full english capabilities plus the additional capabilities:
