I have Illustrator CC 17.0.0 and I can't access the Right-to-Left Paragraph direction option in order to write hebrew/arabic.
I've already changed the type preferences to show Indic options, and then used the "Middle Eastern & South Asian Every-line Composer", but that still doesn't allow me to write from Right to Left.
My trick was to create a Character Style, without and formatting and only change the "Character Direction" to "Right to Left" in the "Middle East Character Formats".
This way, I have to change to this style each time I write something in Hebrew.
Question is, where can i find the RTL option? and could it be that Middle East Character Formats option is found only in character/paragraph style?
