When working with Arabic texts in applications like Adobe After Effects, Arabic letters don't appear in the correct order and forms. After Effect is treating. Arabic Text Reverser accomplishes. We're here to help with your After Effects problems, critique your pieces, and sometimes provide a spot of inspiration. Arabic text in AE (self.AfterEffects) submitted 5 years ago by [deleted] Can anyone help with this? I am trying to add some text slides on an app marketing video that I have localised in Arabic, but whenever I copy pasta.

After Effects is an incredibly versatile program when it comes to creating and animating text. Here’s a guide to some of the most informative and efficient video tutorials that will make you a kinetic typography master in no time. After Effects can be a bit overwhelming initially, and text is no exception. Fear not these After Effects tutorials explain things in an easy to understand way without leaving out the small details that some tutorials simply infer. With the knowledge this guide provides, your creativity will no longer be limited by your software skills. We’ve arranged these in an order that we think provides the best learning process, starting with animation and ending with stylization.

If you are already confident in one technique, you can just move on to the next one that is unfamiliar or needs practice. Basic Text Editing and Animation Before actually diving into typography and stylization, it’s essential that you understand how to edit text layers and apply text animations within After Effects. This great tutorial by After Effects wizard leaves out little detail in explaining the mechanics of text layers. While creating text layouts in another program such as Illustrator might be more appealing to many users, it’s still very helpful to know how to create text on the fly within After Effects, as it is more forgiving to future changes. Kinetic Typography Fundamentals This is where things start to get fun. Kinetic typography is commonplace in all forms of modern media, especially music videos and speech-heavy content. Luckily, it doesn’t take too much technical prowess to make text more exciting — this video alone offers enough information for you to be able to immediately start creating fun and dynamic sound-driven text animations.

With some tips on the actual logic behind kinetic typography, as opposed to just technical techniques, this tutorial one of the best on the subject.

You can add text to a composition using text layers. Text layers are useful for many purposes, including animated titles, lower thirds, credit rolls, and dynamic typography. You can animate the properties of entire text layers or the properties of individual characters, such as color, size, and position.

You animate text using text animator properties and selectors. 3D text layers can optionally contain 3D sublayers, one for each character. (See and.) Text layers are synthetic layers, meaning that a text layer does not use a footage item as its source—though you can convert text information from some footage items into text layers.

Text layers are also vector layers. As with shape layers and other vector layers, text layers are always continuously rasterized, so when you scale the layer or resize the text, it retains crisp, resolution-independent edges. You cannot open a text layer in its own Layer panel, but you can work with text layers in the Composition panel. After Effects uses two kinds of text: point text and paragraph text.

Point text is useful for entering a single word or a line of characters; paragraph text is useful for entering and formatting the text as one or more paragraphs. You can copy text from other applications such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, or any text editor, and paste it into a text layer in After Effects.

Because After Effects also supports Unicode characters, you can copy and paste these characters between After Effects and any other application that also supports Unicode (which includes all Adobe applications). Text formatting is included in the Source Text property. Use the Source Text property to animate formatting and to change the characters themselves (for example, change the letter b to the letter c). After Effects CC automatically synchronizes missing fonts using the available fonts. The Resolve Fonts dialog is displayed when you open a project that uses fonts that are not installed. If the fonts are available from Adobe, you can choose to have them automatically synced to your Creative Cloud account and installed.
