Printing "Arabic typesetting"

[mother.jeni]

I am trying to create a scroll for a craft project, and i thought if I typed
something in a blank publisher page, and set the font to "Arabic typesetting"
it would show or print in arabic, then I could draw the characters on my
Scroll, however, it won't print in the other language. Can someone helP?

From your Help:

The feature or some of the options described in this Help topic are only
available if support for an East Asian or right-to-left language is enabled
through Microsoft Office Language Settings.

On the File menu, click Page Setup. On the Layout tab, under Publication type,
select the Right-to-left page order check box.

Note Before you insert a page in a publication, check the page setting. When
the right-to-left page order is set for a publication, the pages are ordered
from the right to the left. If, for example, you try to insert a page as the
third from the right without checking the page setting, it might appear as the
third from the left.

You might try copying/pasting something here
