Typesetting Arabic!!??

Hi,



I've recently been asked to set a doc in Arabic (working from English), I have the translated text in a word file, but when I copy%26amp;paste into Indesign (CS3) it alters the text (to what I'm told is not Arabic). Does anyone have any experience with this? I've been told the winsoft plugin - Adobe Indesign ME is a good way to go, anyone know anything about that??



Any advice very much appreciated, currently somewhat lost on the subject!!



Many Thanks,



Jim Holland.

It's not a plugin, it's a full blown middle eastern version. The good

news is that CS4 has some hidden features that let you do this.
