Foreign Language Text

[chaim613]

Hello,
I am interested in converting non-English text from a non-English text processor to WordArt. The non-English text processor interacts ( copy/pastes) with WORD. I need WordArt because the foreign language has the vowels below the consonants (it is Aramaic). I am programming a vocabulary education program and I would like to display the foreign text. I don’t want special “ art” effects. I think I can do it if I can convert ordinary non-English text processor text to a graphic file. That is why I want to use WordArt.
My question is what Xara product will do this?
Thank you

Hello Sledger,
Do you know the answer?

there's a really easy way to find out

1. download the free 30-day trial of xara web designer (http://www.xara.com/us/products/webdesigner/) or graphic designer (http://www.xara.com/us/photo-graphic-designer/)
2. see if it displays your aramaic text

xara doesn't support arabictype display afaik and if aramaic uses the same conventions it probably won't disaply
so try the free trial to find out
because anything has to be bettefr than ms office word art!

Personally I would use LibreOffice Write for word processing of Arabic text and or its Draw application. Free as in OpenSource.

I have gotten Farsi to work, but it is a pita.
