Adobe product for print like illustrator Photoshop and in-Design have %100 support for Arabic fonts, but premier and After Effects still have an issue with that! I’m hoping cs3 will give me some good news for a change >_<

Just curious, what isn't supported? I assume the fonts work ok, but the text animation tools probably don't support the right character sets?

Yes after effects does support Arabic fonts but the words in Arabic r interconnected letters and in the final showdown when u type a word it end up in separated letters! The only way to get Arabic support is if the new cs3 have a ME version (middle east edition). Just like they have for Photoshop illustrator and in-Design these days.

No, sorry buddy, this won't change. AE CS3 does not support ligatures, automated glyph substitution and a few other Unicode/ OpenType features, this being based on the opinion that they would not be animatable with the text animators. Even if there were such a thing as an ME edition, you'd have no choice in the matter.
