Creating a RTL font ( Hebrew)

Post by kanermichael »

Hello Everybody,
I'm pretty new to this program and I could really use some help creating a right-to-left font, in my case a old-Hebrew font .
I have tried several other programs, creating the font was no problem, only that everything was written from Left-to-right instead of right-to-left.
I would like to avoid doing this mistake again :)
I would really appreciate it, if someone could post the important steps for creating a RTL font.

Thank you !!!

I don't think there's anything special that you have to do — the right to left behaviour is controlled by the application using the font.

However, I have no experience of making or using these fonts, so I may be wrong.

Mike Thompson will be able to tell you more when he passes by. You can see some of his Hebrew Fonts in the Gallery Forum
